by Lisa Thompson Series (On the Job)
This series of books could be used from Year 5 through to junior high school. It explores the world of careers, and in this particular title looks at who is involved in the business and production of clothing and the fashion industry. There is some background on how the designer got started, a brief history on fashion, and a diary of the steps needed to put together a collection for showing at Fashion Week. The book is visually attractive and the text very approachable. Although this is an American publication, the advice addresses the industry as a whole, with the guidance on qualification fairly non-specific. This would make a very helpful addition to any school library to help children looking for simple career information. There are nine titles in the series.
