Editorial Reviews

Review

"Dedicated to first responders, this offering is a general addition to collections for young readers who just can't get enough stories about their favorite wheeled vehicles."―School Library Journal

About the Author

Sharon Chriscoe loved being a girl scout -- and even though a fire truck never visited her campsite, she did enjoy her share of delicious s'mores. She is the author of Race Car Dreams, illustrated by Dave Mottram, Bulldozer Dreams, illustrated by John Joven, and The Sparrow and the Trees, illustrated by Susan Detwiler. Sharon and her family live in Pilot Mountain, NC.

Dave Mottram always wanted to be an illustrator. He drew pictures until there was no paper left, then he drew on grocery bags. Nowadays he draws on his daughter's lunch bags and illustrates children's books in Ohio where he lives with his family.

The wait is over and I'm impressed
I loved reading RACE CAR DREAMS, which was written and illustrated by the same author-illustrator team to children, so when it was announced that FIRE TRUCK DREAMS was coming available in several months, I pre-ordered it. It arrived today, and I opened and read it. It's a wonderful book that makes a great bedtime story because it has tension, but no conflict. The tension comes as the firetruck falls asleep, dreams about a marvelous adventure, takes action and is rewarded by children who give him s'mores.The question I always ask myself when I get a picture book is will I enjoy reading this to kids 10, 20 or more times? The beautiful illustrations combine with a rhyming text that rolls off the tongue and is easy for children (and me) to memorize. I'm sure that this book will be read over-and-over. Five stars for a gentle story that works well as a bedtime story and brings back fond memories of another book.

My twin nephews are already super-fans of the first two books in this series (Race Car Dreams and Bulldozer Dreams), so I pre-ordered this to give to them for Christmas. Wow, they won't be disappointed!

This new addition to the series follows a kid-friendly routine of getting ready for bed, but with exciting fire truck related imagery and enough action and adventure to keep little ones fully engaged (but without revving them right out of bed!) The text strikes the perfect balance between lively and soothing, with richly detailed, delightful illustrations. Wonderful!

This book also features an adorable doggy, and s'mores too! So much to love!!
