Children’s imaginations are inspirational, they see life as limitless. “If You Like Animals You Could Be” is about inspiring youth to take their passions with them throughout life. For too long, so many kids think one passion of theirs is directed toward one career.
New Book Explores Careers for Animal Lovers
From biologists to veterinarians, “If You Like Animals You Could Be” offers a comprehensive overview of the many ways people can work with animals. Each page is beautifully illustrated by a local artist, capturing the fun of each career and bringing specific people’s stories to life.
The book’s author, Maddy Gawler, has over 16 years of experience with children. As someone who has dedicated her career to sustainability and empowering young people through her babysitting startup, she understands the importance of encouraging children to pursue their passions. It was her high school teacher that provided her with the best career advice of ‘take 3 things you are passionate about and find a job that encompasses them, you’ll love what you do most days’. She took her passions for sustainability, impact and travel and found a career trajectory that allows her to make a large impact within the environment and community and travel around. She has always been dedicated to empowering youth to pursue their passions in life.
