Follow That Fire Truck!

Elmo is asleep with his stuffed dalmation and dreaming that he, Zoey, Grover, and Tele are all firefighters. With Zoey at the wheel, the adorable Sesame Street monsters hurry off to fight a fire and rescue Cookie Monster, Oscar, and some kittens. My toddler loves fire trucks and Sesame Street, so I bought this book without even really looking at it. It exceeded my expectations by far. On each page there are at least 2 or 3 flaps to lift, which is more than you'll find in most "lift the flap" books. The illustrations are wonderful and detailed, the story is humorous throughout, and it's not a bit scary, even during the rescue scenes.
