Cool Careers's a Cool Book

This book is a good introduction to careers in fields that are in high demand and with a shortage of crafts men and women. Stephanie Mannino's choice of crafts makes for interesting and entertaining read, I particularly liked the chapter on Bookbinding in which she features Denis Gouey, one of the leading figure in this craft. One only longs for more featured artisans, but considering the age target for Cool Careers, the author has done a splendid job.Thank you
