Gr 2–5—Many children dream of working with animals. Other youngsters will be drawn to careers as community helpers, especially as first responders. These titles identify two careers through which young people can pursue both interests. The well-designed books contain heartwarming stories of daring animal rescues across the United States and across animal species. Large, attractive photos and sidebars with facts are effectively interwoven into the texts. Information is also provided about job training, duties, and equipment. Solid additions for most collections.—Caroline Geck, Camden Street School Library, Newark, NJ
