Publisher's Synopsis
Join the MVP Kids in imagining the community roles and careers they might fulfill someday. Doctors, mechanics, emergency services, and so many others keep our communities running well. But don't wait! You can make a difference in your community today! Find out about helpful roles kids can fulfill now, and be inspired to show friends and neighbors how much you care.
Through playful rhyme and vibrant illustrations, children are encouraged to think about career and community roles. The MVP Kids are pictured meeting and imitating a variety of workers including blue collar, white collar, government, and preservation careers with an emphasis on how they help the community thrive. The story shifts with, "It's fun to imagine what I'll be when I'm grown up someday, but I'm part of my community now, and I can help today!" Then, the MVP Kids discover that they can make a difference in their community now, filling some of the same helping roles in their own way as children. Many pages include engaging questions to help readers apply the story to themselves. Helpful Teaching Tips provide instruction for readers to discover community and careers in their own context.
This book showcases diversity in positive ways with characters that span various cultures, ethnicities, family situations, physical challenges and more.
