First you hear the siren, then you see the lights. Soon, a red blur zooms by— it’s a truck of firefighters to the rescue! From practical jokes in the firehouse to legendary bravery, every detail of a firefighter’s life is fascinating. This picture book’s simple rousing text and playful illustrations allow even the youngest firefighter fans to follow their heroes through an ordinary day of cooking, laughing, putting out a fire and rescuing a beloved pet.

Rich Davis lives with his wife, Angie, and two sons, Daniel and David, in a small Arkansas town. Farms have always been a deep love for the whole family. In Tiny On the Farm, it is his hope that kids will fall in love with life on the farm too! Rich is also the illustrator of Firefighters to the Rescue (Viking).
PreSchool-Grade 1-A rhythmic text and painterly details provide a glimpse into the life of firefighters from the everyday household chores and practical jokes around the station to the rush to a fire scene and the rescue of a pet. While the rhythm is somewhat uneven, it propels the story along. Davis's colorful illustrations show the firefighters going about their jobs in a confident and unassuming manner. Cars from the 1950s, a Roy Rogers movie playing at the theater, and women wearing hats give the book a nostalgic feel. While the title adopts the modern, gender-neutral "firefighters," the small-town period setting explains the absence of females among them. However, there is a nod toward ethnic diversity in the faces of the men. Young children fascinated with the heroic work of these civil servants will enjoy this book.-Kathleen Meulen, Blakely Elementary School, Bainbridge Island, WA
