## What happens in a firefighter book

A firefighter book lets your child join the crew: sliding down the pole, checking the hoses, polishing the big red engine and helping someone in trouble. The stories stay gentle, with rescues of kittens, stuck balloons and a wobbly treehouse rather than anything frightening. It suits children from about two to seven who wave at every fire engine, and it is a thoughtful gift after a fire station visit or for a family with a firefighter in it.

## How a book like this might begin

> Ding-ding-ding! The bell rang through the fire station and Maya jumped into her boots. She slid down the shiny pole, pulled on her helmet, and climbed up beside Chief Rivera in the big red engine. “Where are we going?” she asked. The Chief pointed at the radio. “There’s a kitten stuck at the very top of the tallest tree in town.”
>
> The engine raced through town with its lights flashing and everyone waving from the sidewalks. At the park, a crowd stood under a very tall oak. Right at the top, on the thinnest branch, sat a small gray kitten, meowing at the clouds. Maya looked at the ladder and took a deep breath.

An example. Every book is written fresh for your child, so yours will be its own story.

## When families give it

Firefighter books are given for birthdays, after a fire station open day, to celebrate a parent or grandparent who serves, or to teach fire safety in a friendly way. Tell us if you want the story to include simple safety steps, like stop, drop and roll, and they are woven in.

Printed books ship in about 8–15 business days, so order about three weeks ahead. You can read it on screen the moment it is made.

## Questions

### Can it star a parent who is a firefighter?

Yes. Add them as a character, with a photo if you like, and the story can show your child joining their crew for a day.

### Will a fire in the story frighten a young child?

The stories avoid frightening fires. Rescues are things like kittens in trees and stuck balloons, and everyone is always safe at the end.

### Do I need a photo?

No. A name is enough to start. A photo helps the illustrations look like your child.

### Can I change the story?

Yes. You read every page before you order and can change any page you like.

### What does it cost?

Free to make and preview. A hardcover is $45 with the eBook included, and a printed booklet about $21, US shipping included, for a standard 24-page book.

### How long does it take to arrive?

You can read it online in minutes. Printed copies arrive in about 8–15 business days with standard US shipping; our delivered US orders so far took 8 to 13 days. Faster shipping is offered at checkout.
