Description: Peruse a variety of jobs and careers through oral history interviews with people who love what they do for a living. Learn the ins and outs of careers that range from mainstream roles such as doctors, computer experts, and postal workers to more obscure callings such as mural painters, river trip guides, and creature effects technicians. Corresponding open-ended projects, stories, recipes, and book suggestions give further insights into how certain careers fulfill particular people. Many career-based projects make great learning extensions for different subject areas such as art, math, science, and social studies. Blue collar, white collar, and arts positions are given even attention.
