I am a peace officer and bought this book for my boy (now 11 months). As with every Richard Scarry book, the illustrations are great and really keep him entertained. I like the positive message (in short supply these days for law enforcement). I do find the quality of the book as far as material used a bit cheap and question how long it will last in the hands of a child. If a heartier version was available I would spend the extra money.
I got this book for a child that had Cancer. He requested cops nationwide send him gifts. I also sent a toy, and the Andy Griffith videos. He was SO excited. Great book--local cops signed it for him in the hospital.
Our 4 year old loves R. Scarry - Lowley the worm one of our favorites. We were extraordinarily disappointed with "A Day at the Police Station". An infant lost from the mom, a ghost in the bathroom (great help for potty training) I mean come on. Weak effort, not thought out - too bad. 3/4 of the book is great but that 1/4 just overwhelming.
This was a pleasurable experience and the book arrived in excellent condition. This book will be perfect when we talk about how policemen and women protect our community during our safety week in preschool.
My husband collects sidecars and my son-in-law is a State Trooper so this was more of a gag/collector's gift for him. My grandchildren want to read it when they visit but my husband put it in his display case with the rest of his sidecars.
I bought this book, and several other Richard Scarry books, for my 3 year old daughter. She LOVES books! This book is really cute, alittle wordy, but she keeps up with me when I read it:) I would definitely recommend for your "little reader."
Another fantastic Richard Scarry educational book, with his world of anthropomorphic animals in Busytown and Workville.Mrs Murphy has to go to Workville and asks Sergeant Murphy look after Bridget.Sarge takes Bridget with him to the police station and here Bridget watches Sarge respond to a scare by Hilda Hippo, helps him take a lost toddler back to the police station and call her mother, respond to an accusation by Mr Gronkle of a robbery and rescue Bananas Gorilla after his bananamobile plunges into the water.Always fun for children as this one teaches kids about a typical work day at the police station, and why being a police officer is very important.I learned to read with Richard Scarry and am glad to note that the Richard Scarry corporation is still coming up with books about his characters.
Another fantastic Richard Scarry book. Loved them as a kid and love them now. This one is about a police officer dad whose daughter accompanies him to work one day. She gets to see all the great things he does. It ends with her saying her dad has the best job.Great for all kids, esp those with police officer parents.Also fun way to tell your officer husband he 's gonna be a daddy :)
