Written especially for girls ages from 11 to 14 years, this title profiles 10 women working in computers. Each woman reveals how she broke into her field, the nature of her work, and why she loves what she does. Books in this popular, highly acclaimed series take a fascinating look at exciting non-traditional careers for women. Filled with inviting graphics and photographs, each volume describes the careers of 10-11 women. These women were like some girls today - they dreamed of successful careers but often didn't know what they wanted to do or how to go about pursuing a career that would be meaningful to them. Through sharing their stories, they provide young readers with good role models and excellent advice for preparing for their particular careers. The upbeat and informative pages, written in an age-appropriate style, encourage career exploration and broaden girls' career horizons. The book also provides: a personality checklist for each job; skills and physical demands; education requirements; lists of books, videos, and websites; salary range; and organisations and professional associations to contact.
