Nicely indepth & appropriate for preschoolers

So many books on fire fighters contain such scant actual information or completely incorrect information about fighting fires as to make them useless. Happily, this is not one of those books. The book provides a nice amount of information on fire fighters including how they dress for a fire, how they fight fires and what they do after a fire. The information on their life in the fire station in between emergencies isn't covered in depth, but that's not primarily what interests preschoolers anyway.
