In this book we learn that not only do they all wear capes, but that they aren't all fictional characters. One thing they have in common, they're here to protect you! "They help us feel better when good feelings go away."

My favorite part of the book is that it goes beyond the different types of careers in the medical field. It provides words of encouragement, as well as inspire youth to enter in these fields, and how.
You TOO can do this, and here's how...
The illustrations provide a great message - representation matters!
I would recommend Not All Superheroes Wear Capes because it provides an in depth look into STEM careers, beyond simply being a doctor.
