Some non-fiction text features included in each book are engaging photographs, a table of contents, labels, headings, bold-faced words, a diagram, a glossary, and an index. These books are a great introduction to a variety of careers related to science, technology, engineering, and math.', Charity Nadrozny, 2nd Grade Teacher, Illinois, Educator Review,'Aerospace engineers use math and physics to design airplanes and spacecraft. This book is a Blastoff Reader from the Careers in STEM series. There are 2-3 sentences per page and uses many text features such as bold words, table of contents, photographs and captions. The glossary is needed as there are many words that will be new to readers, such as internships and physics. This book explains what an aerospace engineer is, does, and how to become an aerospace engineer. The books in this series introduce readers to careers they may not be familiar with.', Amy Covey, South Sound Book Review Council, Washington
