Aircraft Pilot

November 1, 2012

Gr 4-7-Covering more than just the well-known Special Forces, the books in this series include a look at some unfamiliar military professions. Each overview contains some of the same information (with similar wording), so taken as a whole, the series becomes repetitive. Job requirements and training are discussed in general terms (with required skills highlighted in text boxes), and titles mention retirement, salary expectations, and civilian careers after service. The captioned, full-color photographs of machines and professionals in action and the clean white pages make the texts approachable and will be helpful for easily distracted readers. Individual volumes will work for those looking for general information about pursuing a military career.
