I had previously purchased the original corduroy storybook and when I saw that their was another one made I had to get it for him and he enjoyed this one, probably even more on account that he loves firetrucks.

Gave this book, along with the medium Corduroy Bear stuffed animal, to a little 1-yr. old girl. By all appearances, she was happy and excited to receive the gifts. I haven't actually had any feedback from the parents, but trust it was a good idea. I went with the "fireman" theme because my husband was a career firefighter.
