My son loved to read this for the first time because of the sound and the interactive pages. Now that he is 5 he actually starts to read thanks to this book. It has simple language with just enough words for a little one to absorb and have fun reading. At the end this book lists a Firefighter Certificate of accomplishment to the reader. Pretty cool:)
