Gr 5–9—Slender but useful volumes make up this series for enterprising teens.
You're in Business! focuses on attainable jobs for young people, such as babysitter, retail worker, and camp counselor. There are also chapters on how to create work by washing cars, making crafts or baked goods to sell, or by teaching others how to use social media (the most creative suggestion of the series). Attractive design using a scrapbook aesthetic allows readers to casually thumb through each book for ideas, and a simple structure ensures that they can scan the table of contents to find something to catch their eye. General tips on how to present oneself in an interview, write a resume, and advertise one's services are also included in each book. A helpful series for teens looking to turn their hobbies into cash or just seeking a good job.
Filled with useful and practical advice, these books will enable young job seekers to plan and execute their searches--"even before you turn sixteen." Although the jobs and projects vary in age requirements, are often region-specific, and are sometimes complex (e.g., making soap), the series will help younger kids to be creative and inspire teens to get organized. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these You're in Business titles: Get a Job at a Business, Get a Job Helping Others, Get a Job Making Stuff to Sell, and Get a Summer Adventure Job.
