How to Be a Doctor and Other Life-Saving Jobs
Publisher: Nosy Crow
What is a doctor and how do you become one? What do doctors need to learn, and what are the different kinds of doctors you can be?
Answering these and many more questions, such as ‘Who looks after older people?’ and ‘What happens when someone has a baby?’ this helpful picture book, perfect for mid-and upper-primary readers, explains how a variety of people in healthcare help us and what their jobs consist of. It also looks at other areas of healthcare, such as psychiatry, psychology and counselling as well as medical research scientists, microbiologists and pharmacists.
Visually striking and clear, Sol Linero’s graphic style illustrations also feel cool and trendy, making this feel like an aspirational, interesting read.
Written by a GP and BBC Morning Live presenter Dr Punam Krishan, this lovely and highly informative book is a great resource for any youngster thinking about what they might want to be when they grow up, especially if they are interested in helping people and saving lives.

These are some of our favourite books to engage and excite young children on this topic.
