Description
Career Day is approaching, and Annie can't wait to show her family what she's planning to be when she grows up. But she must keep it a secret until Friday! Curious family members each ask Annie for a clue. Convinced that she'll be a news reporter like he once was, Grandpop gives her his old camera and notebook to use for her presentation. Grandma is sure Annie wants to be a champion baker like her, so she offers a mixing bowl and oven mitts to Annie. Hopeful she'll become the mountain climber he aspired to be; Dad gives Annie an old backpack. Mom presents Annie with a pair of high-top sneakers to pursue Mom's favorite sport in high school - basketball.
Grateful for each gift, Annie cleverly finds a way to use them all to create her Career Day costume. When the big day arrives, Annie finally reveals HER out-of-this-world dream to everyone.
This delightful story--with backmatter about women astronauts--encourages young readers to pursue their dreams and reach for the stars.
