Look Inside Jobs

Look Inside

by Lara Bryan, Wesley Robins (Illustrator)

Lift the flaps of this book and discover what grown-ups do, whether they work by day or night, outdoors or indoors, up high or even under the ground. This fascinating introduction to over 100 jobs, from nurses, to musicians and arborists, opens up a world of possibilities. Flaps on every page reveal what happens behind the scenes, whether at the fire station or a busy restaurant kitchen. Gives children a sense of the rich array of jobs out there, while focusing on the things that most jobs have in common - teamwork, communication and helping people. A fabulous addition to the popular Look Inside series.

About the author

Lara has loved books since the days of being read bedtime stories by her Irish dad and French mum. At school she set up a secondhand bookshop called Books Change Lives, and went on to study English and Italian at Oxford University. After teaching in Italy and Myanmar, she got her dream job as a writer for Usborne Publishing. From explaining how economics works, to inventing boredom-busting activities, to telling a good dragon yarn, she's enjoyed every minute of the job.

Kiva kokonaisuus tietoa, kuvitusta ja läppiä, suuri määrä ammatteja lyhyesti. Muitakin ammatteja kuin perinteiset poliisi, opettaja, talonmies.

Hi,

I hope all is progressing well.

Look Inside Jobs by Lara Bryan with Wesley Robbins as the Illustrator is an extremely quick introduction to random jobs. Perusing a Mona English Bookstore in Ulaanbaatar (Mongolia), I find a book I think may be a good resource for encouraging students to become more practically aware of the world beyond and/or with an education. The book does not cover salaries per positions or any economic-social understandings (financial potentialities/realities in connection with a/ geographic placement[s]/situation[s]) in connection with any career and/or job; the book offers optimistic glances of a/ career and/or job situation(s) as well as potential thinking routes for any approaching a/ career and/or job situation(s) as a student (considering any potential goal(s) and/or interest(s) an individual may have–particularly as a student though beyond studenthood as well). I find the text informative: I'm now aware of the existence of the role of a Sewer Technician. Of course, I am well aware of many more jobs in existence than the book offers though I think such a book may assist one in broadening one's awareness of a potential career and/or job path even somewhat how to approach navigating a potential career and/or job path in connection with one's long-term life objective(s). Be careful/gentle bending the flaps within the books.

Onward and Upward,
