TARGET: ELEM: good career books for grades 1-2

[Bill McLoughlin <WMcLoughlin@WORTHINGTON.K12.OH.US>]

Hi Everyone,

I want to purchase a set of books which describe various careers.  The =
intended audience for these books is children in grades 1-2.  Can anyone =
recommend successful sets that you've purchased?

The Firefly series looks good, as do the titles available from PowerKids =
Press.  I like the fact that Firefly's "I Want To Be a Pilot" features a =
woman rather than a man on its cover... excellent gender sensitivity!   I =
just wondered what others of you out there have ordered and particularly =
liked.

I'll post a HIT of any replies I receive.

Thanks in advance!
