""Carving out a slightly more specialized niche in the perennially popular genre of firefighting books, this colorful volume emphasizes clothing, equipment, and tools.""—Booklist
Carving out a slightly more specialized niche in the perennially popular genre of firefighting books, this colorful volume emphasizes clothing, equipment, and tools. Each double-page spread in the volume's main section carries two or three sentences on a brightly colored background. Occasionally, a question appears there as well, intended to spark critical thinking in the book's audience. On the facing page is a color photo featuring a firefighter or their equipment. The pictures include a bit of racial and gender diversity. While the book is rather short, the nine full-page photos are large enough for group sharing. The appended 'Firefighter Tools' page and glossary reinforce terminology. From the Bumba Books Community Helpers Tools of the Trade series (8 titles), here's an opportunity for libraries to refresh their firefighter collections. --Booklist --Journal
