Three cheers for police officers!

“Cartoon-style animated drawings in bright colors introduce diverse characters who will capture children’s interest.” —School Library Journal

“In each book introducing a community-benefiting career, schoolchildren meet one adult to learn about his or her job; information includes the training required to become a firefighter, doctor, etc., daily routines, and primary responsibilities. The content is inclusive and up-to-date but delivered though vapid stories. Peppy computer-generated cartoons are amateur.” – The Horn Book Guide
