Great for young children
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
When my daughter was young, she was fascinated by the vehicles with sirens. In particular she loved seeing the big red fire trucks go by us with lights flashing and sirens wailing. As a consequence of that excitement, I checked this book out and read it to her, over and over again. Although she did not understand many of the principles of measure, such as the height of 20 stacked giraffes, she did love the pictures and the sound effects I provided. I strongly recommend this as reading material for young children.
Can't get enough

My 3 yr old son cannot get enough of this book. He wants it read over and over again. The other day he asked me," Does this firetruck not have outriggers?" And I did a double take. They really take it all in. Great book!
Great book for the little ones.

I am a volunteer firefigther, and I often go to schools and preschools to teach. Many times, the littlest kids don't get to do the fun stuff outside (spraying water or going into the life-safety trailer), so I bring along teaching adjuncts to help me with the small tikes. This book is great. The kids like the words and the pictures. It is well bound and my copy has stood the test of time.
A book with wheels!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
My 15 month son is crazy about this book. We first found it at Horizons bookstore in Traverse City while waiting for a family member. My son wheeled the book around the store--keeping him busy for a half hour! Reading the book or pushing it around never fails to engage him--I'm purchasing a new copy now because he has used it a bit too much! (I recommend reinforcing the binding with a bit of tape if you've got a vigorous boy like I do.)
This is an informative, easy to read book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
I bought this book for my son last year and it is among his favorites. What I liked about this book is that it's informative for children and adults. The language is clear and concise and items such as size are explained using comparisons children can understand. I highly recommend this book for all young fire engine fans.
