PreS-Gr 1–Firefighters take the community helper spotlight in the latest addition to the “Finn’s Fun Trucks” series. A diverse group of firefighters describes their essential roles by introducing various firefighting vehicles and explaining their functions. “This is a Fire Tanker. Can you guess what it does? A fire tanker is a large truck that can hold lots of water so firefighters can put out fires when hydrants cannot be used or aren’t available.”
VERDICT Children fascinated by firefighting will return to this book time and time and again, making it a purchase for most libraries.
