One of six very young readers, letting us know what those adults mean when they label someone a key worker, and telling us how we need them too. Here the key workers are all connected to education, but they range from the crossing guard and the counsellor to the dinner lady to the teacher. (No head teachers or principals here – too scary?) It's just a basic grounding, letting us gently into the school environment, with a nudge to being tidy (ie doing the cleaner's work for them) and joining after-school clubs. Photo visuals are heavily inclusive, and it's all done pretty successfully. You know if you need a book like this – and if you need one, this is a very decent choice.
There are all different people who work in a school and this book shows what they do. I like how it literally went all around the school, before and after the school day. It could be a good introduction to school for youngsters.
This series of nonfiction books about important key workers is presented in an organized way. I like the simple text and clear photographs. There’s even a glossary and index which impresses this children’s librarian. If we don’t highlight jobs in the field of education, where will our future school workers come from?
