5.0 out of 5 stars Be a Noodler or Tromboner, September 11, 2003

Joshua Koppel (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Maybe You Should Fly a Jet! (Beginner Book Series, No. 67) (Hardcover)

This book take a fun and rhyming look at lots of jobs someone can have when they grow up. But as this is Seuss, some of these professions are little strange and fanciful (and some are grammatically wrong such as tromboner instead of trombonist).

But while this book keeps asking the reader what they want to be, it ends by telling them that they don't have to decide right now.

This is a fun book for learning to read and learning a bit about the world, but it should not be taken verbatim.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Maybe You Should Fly a Jet! Maybe You Should Be a Vet! (Beginner Books) (Hardcover)

This Dr. Seuss book is from 1980 and is out of print in retail book stores. Pros: Easy to read and rhymes, cool pictures, a variety of careers/jobs, incl some women in traditional male jobs and vice versa. Puts lots of ideas in the readers head, some that mightve never heard of.
Cons: Some jobs are not really "careers" (w/ much less income). This would need to possibly be explained to the child, if desired. A bit outdated maybe, but I think overall a great book.
