Wise Words from the Bad Rabbit by Alexander George

There is no single path to the job of your dreams.

What does it take to become a stuntperson? How does a
mathematician spend her days? When does a barber become the center of a
community? In this refreshing take on a careers book, meet twenty-five
individuals of different backgrounds, genders, and abilities who have found
their careers through a wide range of experience, education, intention, and
inspiration. From Joshua Jones, who built a business where he could thrive as a
Deaf interior designer, to Teresa Tam, whose hunger for knowledge led her to
the position of Canada's Chief Public Health Officer, each of these dreamers found
ways to dig deep into their passion, to gain experience and knowledge, and to
turn that into a job.

In If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It, Colleen
Nelson
, middle-school teacher and award-winning author of The Harvey
Stories and The Undercover Book List, teams up with children's librarian
and literacy advocate Kathie MacIsaac to show young readers that there
are many paths to a dream job. Education may come from university, college,
trade school, apprenticeship, specialized training, or simply asking questions
and getting involved. Your career may be something you're already dreaming
about or something you've never even heard of. No matter what, success means
feeling happy with the work you do.

If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It includes full-color photographs and
illustrations, informative sidebars, tips for trying out a field of interest, a
glossary, an index, and an interactive quiz. Spotlight features on children and
youth who are already gaining experience for their own dream jobs round out
this inspirational resource.

Professor of Philosophy at Amherst College, Alexander George What Would Socrates Say? is his edited collection. In 2005, he launched AskPhilosophers.org.
