Fire drill, though a life saving procedure, can be hard to explain to kids. This book, however, works like a charm. It capitalizes on little ones’ fondness for rhymes and uses it creatively to deliver the essential nature of a fire drill without any sense of alarm.
The illustrations, created using cut-paper collages, are exceptional too!
The book is a must-have on all counts.
Excerpt
Hear your name.
Raise your hand.
Say out loud: “Here I am!”
Now we wait.
Now we stay.
