Let's meet people who make our communities a more pleasant place to live. Colorful photos show workers performing their tasks which helps put their roles into a context children will recognize. Young readers are introduced to: - agricultural workers - firefighters - recycling workers - veterinarians, and more!
Book is great resource for introduction to community helpers and Alphabet. If using with preschoolers, make the book work as a themed resource. Introducing a few letters weekly with corresponding activities in your centers to go along with community occupations is great. Especially role playing. The pictures are of real people doing real jobs and performing real services in the community. !!The possibilities for use of this book is endless". Good book overall. Gives enough information about each occupation and great to envoke further research on individual occupations for older students.
Great Careers' Book!

Community Helpers is an extremely reasonably priced book that is packed with interesting information about many careers. The photographs of workers, enhance the details given about each occupation. As a teacher I was pleased to read the clear descriptions of so many jobs packed into one book! I recommend this book for all children thinking about their future and for the adults that are helping them to do this.
