This book is about Corduroy the bear and his class at school taking a trip to the fire station. The book is a very imformative book and teaches the reader about what each truck does and what to do if you find matches or catch on fire, they also learn about some of the gear that fireman wear. While learning about some of the gear and information the fireman teach them they practice techniques such as stop drop and roll and they also try on and play around with the gear. At the end of the day there is a surprise in store for Corduroys class.
Corduroy Goes to the Fire Station is a good book for young students to inform them about fireman and what they do, and to also teach them what to do if they happen to find matches or catch on fire. The book has great pictures that follow along with the text and each picture has between 2 and 4 pop-up's to see what is kept inside fire truck cabinets or inside doors through the fire house and sometimes under the pop-up's you'll find some of Corduroys classmates or a certain fire house mascot!
I like books that teach life lessons. Stop drop and roll is very important. That fire safety drill now includes "cover" as in cover your face so it doesn't get burn off.
ReplyDeleteDoes corduroy have any more adventures?
You have a special gift. Don't hide it under a bushel basket.

This looks like a super cute book! I haven't seen Corduroy books, except the original so this was a nice surprise. Great review, I'll be looking for this book now to add to my son's library.
