Books Are Windows Story Window Storytime Blog: Rescue Worker Storytime

Peek inside for storytime ideas! Wilmette Librarians share suggestions for age-appropriate books, rhymes, songs, and crafts.

April 22, 2009

Some things never change: firefighter, police officer, and doctor continue to be popular career choices even among the three-year-old set! Two weeks ago, we celebrated rescue workers in storytime with these choices.

Dot the Fire Dog, by Lisa DeSimini. Firefighting from a Dalmatian's eye view. I use this book a LOT. It's still one of the best firefighting books for two- and three-year-olds.

Police: Hurrying! Helping! Saving!, by Patricia Hubbell, illustrated by Viviana Garofoli. Rhyming story that covers many of police's common tasks, including the many vehicles they may use!

Doctor Meow's Big Emergency, by Sam Lloyd. Simple story about a 9-1-1 call from a cat who falls out of a tree. Doctor Meow to the rescue!
