One of Scholastic’s Listen & Read books, the “Utility Worker” read-along activity tells the story of how a utility worker makes sure electricity goes to all the homes and buildings that need it.

Students read the story while the utility worker reads aloud with them. Clickable images help illustrate the story. At the end, students can take a quick multiple-choice quiz to test their reading comprehension.
