I have more respect for fire fighters after reading this book. It covers everything from what fire fighters do to become one, what they do as they are one, and how they compare to everybody else. All of the pictures are photos taken of real live fire fighters and events. Boys and girls can enjoy this book.

Learned a lot about fire fighting in this book. Although it is starting to get dated. The clothing in some of the pictures is a bit out of style. Hair styles are a bit dated too.
