Poinsettia and the Firefighters

Do you want a book about kids, parents, and how much they love each other, along with being a good citizen, then this is the book for you. Felicia Bond (who is well known for the drawings in the book If You Give a Mouse a Cookie (If You Give...)and many other books, has created a wonderful story with charming drawings, and engaging characters. This is a continuation of a book about Poinsettia and her large family, Poinsettia & her family which has my favorite line in any children's book..."I'm a pig in bliss!" as Poinsettia soaks in a bathtub. You and and your kids will read this over and over again.

I found this book in the classroom library of a fellow teacher, and was thrilled as I had just finished a unit on "family" and used Poinsettia and her Family, by Felicia Bond. My preschoolers LOVED this book! When I borrowed and read this title, we fell in love with it as well!

This is the first "long" book my 2 year old has actually wanted to read. And we read it several times each day. The pictures are great and my son seems to relate to the storyline. A must read for toddlers!
