Intelligently conceived and designed to TEACH young readers, rather than just showing them glossy photographs.
This "Trip to the Fire Station" is head and shoulders above another book I've just reviewed, "A Trip to the Firehouse" by Josie Keogh.
By contrast, what's different about this book with the Sesame Street brand? It has the feel of a real visit, aiming to educate and entertain real children. Readers learn about physical things, unusual things, at a fire station, including:
* A shiny fire truck
* Hoses
* Oxygen Tanks
* Big Bird
Okay, Big Bird isn't at your typical fire station. And technically he isn't even human. But bringing in Muppets adds to the humanity of this early reader for children.
My favorite quote here comes from Oscar the Grouch:
"I like the
alarm because
it is loud!"
FIVE STARS for the verve, creativity, and enthusiasm that make this firehouse book a standout.
