Booklist - 10/01/2014 This entry into the You’re in Business! series profiles eight summer jobs suitable for middle-school students, including junior camp counselor, farm worker, personal shopper, summer theater actor, family helper, photographer’s assistant, and golf caddy. Jacobson describes the work involved, skills required, and how to secure a position. Careful to disclose a job’s pros and cons, Jacobson also offers job search tips and recommends volunteering when paid work is unavailable. Frequent sidebars address other relevant concerns: job applications, résumés, bank accounts, job safety, and interviewing. With prevalent mixed-media illustrations, succinct text, and solid practical advice (especially advice regarding professionalism and work ethic, which some teens ignore when said by parents), this will be a boon to motivated teens. - Copyright 2014 Booklist.
