They Do That for a Living?

Walking across the Grand Canyon on a highwire. Competing in slam poetry contests. Hacking into a private company's computer network. Although they may seem strange to many people, these undertakings are indeed real-life jobs. They Do That for a Living? is a fun series that discusses some of the most unusual--but completely real--professions in the world today. Imagine helping people recover from injuries through horse riding, writing a book for a celebrity, or making video game characters spring to life with one's voice. With striking color photographs, a fun Find Out More section, and a useful index, this series will tell kids all about exciting careers they didn't realize existed--and perhaps even inspire a passion they never knew they had.
