History is exciting and memorable in this creative new nonfiction series that ''preps'' children for some of the most fascinating occupations throughout time.

Each book features an original format that allows kids to identify with the given profession. Detailed illustrations bring the action to life. And engaging text challenges students to learn as much as they can as they prepare for a ''job interview'' at the end of the book. All of the topics selected complement social studies curriculum in grades 3 to 6. This series is sure to motivate even the most reluctant of readers—especially boys.
