PS
Double-page spreads present "goers." The first depicts a fire station, with lift-the-flaps introducing personnel and equipment; a segmented foldout then shows the truck leaving the station on a duty call. There's much to contemplate, and toddlers will study each page. The volume's title gives youngsters ninety-five percent of the text's vocabulary. After hearing the book, children can read it on their own.
