Changes

However, there is A Little Problem. Sharon Rentta uses Emphasising Capital Letters. She uses them a lot. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that she uses them A Bit Too Much. A gentle sprinkling throughout would have been fine, and suited the Tone Of The Book. However, here they are Every Other Sentence. They lose their impact, and just seem wrong. That said, as ''A Day With The Animal Firefighters'' will be read to young children more than by young children, it's not The End Of The World. Beyond the capital letters, the writing is brilliant. The vocabulary, pacing and style are spot on. The pages flow by brilliantly, and it's bound to be a highly popular repeat read.

Sharon Rentta's illustrations suit the tone perfectly. All of the characters are highly appealing. It's great fun to see all the action on every page, and there are plenty of amusing asides hidden throughout. That poor koala gets a bum deal quite a lot, but he's certainly good comedy value! The young book fans will ask plenty of interested interesting questions throughout. It's one of those wonderful picture books that can take much longer to read, as you expand on what's going on throughout the book.

Fans of firemen will also love [[Chief Rhino To The Rescue by Sam Lloyd]]. [[What Do People Do All Day? by Richard Scarry]] is a great choice for all children. For another 'day our' try [[A Day at the Animal Post Office by Sharon Rentta]]
