Bookroo's summary

In Mrs. Madoff's class, Career Day brings a parade of fascinating visitors, each sharing insights into their unique professions. From authors to veterinarians, the children, including Michiko and Jessica, are inspired to dream about their future paths. As each guest reveals the joys and challenges of their work, the students begin to ponder the age-old question: 'What do you want to be when you grow up?' This engaging exploration of careers invites young readers to imagine endless possibilities for their own futures.

From the publisher

Michiko’s mother writes books. Jessica’s mother is a veterinarian. Pablo’s father is a construction worker. What kinds of work do people you know do?

On Career Day the children in Mrs. Madoff’s class take turns introducing special visitors. Every visitor has something interesting to share, and together the class learns all about the different work people do.

In the fourth Mrs. Madoff book, Anne and Lizzy Rockwell revisit Mrs. Madoff’s class as they help young readers explore the question “What do you want to be when you grow up?”
