Helping kids to dream, to have a vision of what their lives can be like is so very important. Lois Melbourne has created a beautiful book to help our kids understand that they can and should dream Why? Helping kids explore careers, beyond what they see in the neighborhood, leads to more purposeful decisions about their future. Teaching kids how to ask questions and engage adults about their jobs opens up opportunities.
