This is a review for a new novel called Healthcare Heroes: The Medical Careers Guide. I received in exchange for this review. The thoughts in the review are mine and my families.
With Charlie continuing to Homeschool this year we can learn anything that will interest Charlie. We don’t have to stick to workbooks and books the kids in public school are using. Which is why I chose “Healthcare Heroes: The Medical Careers Guide” for Charlie to read in his free time.
As Charlie gets older I want him to find a job he likes and enjoys. I would like for the job to be something no, one else have then Charlie will always have a job.
Inside “Healthcare Heroes: The Medical Careers Guide” Charlie was able to learn about careers we hadn’t heard of and decided if they might be right for him or his friends.
“Healthcare Heroes: The Medical Careers Guide” covers the Healthcare Field which is what my sister is in. Along with my Uncle Chuck who was a Surgical Nurse.
“Healthcare Heroes: The Medical Careers Guide” touches on becoming a Veterinarian which is what my daughter Leslie and my niece Alyssa would like to become.
As much as Charlie loves animals I could even see Charlie becoming a Veterinarian except for the fact animals get sick and die. Charlie couldn’t handle that.
I liked how the first part of “Healthcare Heroes: The Medical Careers Guide” shares who contributed to the novel. Allowing Charlie and I to get to know the contributors better. As well as the editors.
In each section “Healthcare Heroes: The Medical Careers Guide” shows how long you would need to attend school and what you would make which Charlie and even David thought were interesting.
There is references inside each section which will lead us to additional studies. As well as words we can use in our spelling classes. Each occupation is broken up into different sections which will allow us to “Healthcare Heroes: The Medical Careers Guide not only in Health class but for reports we write for Language Arts.
