Book Synopsis

"The underlying concepts, meant to help readers gently transition into their student roles, are straightforward, soothing, and helpful." - Publishers Weekly

We go to school to learn all kinds of things. Our teacher does arts and crafts with us or reads us books. Teachers also teach bigger kids to read and write. And they do so much more …

A reassuring, informative book for children about teachers and schools. For ages 4 and up.

What do you want to be when you grow up?
Liesbet Slegers’s successful book series helps young children search for the answer to that important question. Do you like food and cooking? You might want to be a chef. If you are afraid of heights, becoming a pilot probably isn’t the right career choice. Or maybe you like school so much that you decide to become a teacher? There are so many wonderful careers to choose from!
With clear language and cheerful drawings, this series presents many of the most popular professions. Each book is packed with fun facts, new words, and interesting stories of real professionals.
Do you know why an astronaut wears such a funny suit? How about why it is so difficult to be a ballerina or a racecar driver? Or why it’s important to visit the dentist twice a year? Read these books to learn the answers to these questions!
So . . . what do you want to be when you grow up?
