This book is a great choice for young kids that want to become a firefighter, it teaches them that firefighters are great people to look up to and you can become whatever you set out to do. This book also teaches young readers that firefighters not only fight fires but also do many other good things for the community, such as get kitties out of trees and respond to medical calls. I am 10 and i liked this book, it was enjoyable i rate it 4 stars.

The best thing about this firefighting book is that it uses photos intead of illustrations. It also had a female firefighter in it, which piqued my daughter's intrest, not only my son for whom I bought the book. It doesn't go into great detail about anything, but it does point out several responsibilities firefighters have. The kids liked it and so did my firefighter husband.

I bought this book for my four-year-old grandson for Christmas. Ironically, the day I submitted my order for it, I was at his house in the evening, and he greeted me with, "Grandma, I want to be a Firefighter." I knew then I had made a good choice and actually he dearly loves the book. So much, in fact, that he kept it in bed with him each night after having it read to him. He loves the story of the different firefighter experiences and the pictures are so realistic to him. Great book even if the child doesn't want to be a firefighter, one can learn a lot of what they do.

My daughter,son in law and husband are all firefighters so my grandson is obsessed with anything involving fire equipment. He wants me to read this book to him everytime he visits! He has his own life like fire gear and he loves looking at the nice pictures in the book.

Our pastor's son told me several months before Christmas that he wanted to be a Fireman when he grows up. I bought him a Fireman's Suit and Accesories. I also ordered several books about being a Fireman to get him off on the right foot. This book is great and his Mom said he asks for it frequently at bedtime. Thank you for offering the books.

My 5 year old son loves this book and we read it nightly as one of his selections as a bedtime story. I do not like the order of the book. It seems that the pages were just put in the book in any order. It is not well organized and should have been arranged in a more organized fashion.

This series of books are fantastic...the realistic pictures and explanations are geared for the young preschooler, I have purchased all the books and use them often.

BEING PART OF A FIREFIGHTER FAMILY, THIS BOOK IS WONDERFUL FOR THE CHILDREN! IT IS SO INFORMATIVE AND BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
