Very cute story, my son was so invested in the pictures and couldn’t stop giggling! He really, really enjoyed it and it was so lovely reading it with him!

It was an alright read but I don't think my son enjoyed it as much as some of the others we have read. Nice story about some kids being firefighters for the day

Mother of a 5yo and 8yo here and we LOVED this book! My son is a huge fan of firefighters and loved the chance to experience a day as a firefighter, as Luke grabs his dog and a few friends to spend a day in the life of a firefighter. What a clever idea, we cannot wait to see what else Ashley Wall as written!

Thank you to NetGalley and Independent Book Publishers Association for this eARC!

5⭐
Firefighters have decided to take the day off, leaving little Luke in charge.

I can safely say this is one of my son's favorite books at the moment & mine too! Constantly asking for fire trucks!

Thank you NetGalley and MamaBear Books for this ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

A very fun story of a boy who has to be firefighter for a day. He assembles a crew and helps his community in ways that a firefighter would usually do so. The illustrations are fun as well.

This is a delightfully charming picture book! My kids loved the story of Luke’s adventurous day with the fire truck. The message of friendship and helping each other was beautifully done. The illustrations were perfect as well. Highly recommend!

Lovely story with a great message, just perfect for the little ones.
With wonderful illustrations that catches the eye and compliments perfectly the story, this book transports the youngest to a wonderful adventure with great lessons.

I read this book to my 4 yos (b/g twins) while waiting for big sister to finish gymnastics. It was a hit! They loved that the kids got to be the firefighters for the day. There was an inclusive group of friends, and each of them felt they got to take part.

The illustrations were descriptive enough that they felt that they could read the story from the pictures alone.

A lovely story, especially great for my son who is fire truck mad! The perfect balance of imaginative and informative, showing children that they don't just put out fires! The illustrations were beautiful too.

I really wanted to love this one because my son loves fire trucks, but as we read it together we really weren't pulled in like I expected. The story is cute but maybe not the most engaging for us at the 2 year old stage.

This is an adorable children’s book about a day on a fire truck! It does a great job of getting the terminology correct so it teaches the children in a super fun and exciting way. The story itself it so cute and even as an adult I enjoyed reading this out loud to my 2 year old. She loves fire trucks and sat through the whole book eagerly turning the pages. A great addition to the series and one we would highly recommend!

Overall, the book was well written and I did really enjoy it. Thank you for this advance reading copy!

This was a quick and fun little story about a boy named Luke who was given a task to save the day by the fire department in his area. I find that the art is really cute and simple and that it helps the children distinguish what is happening in the story as the plot goes on. The characters are also diverse which is also another lovely thing to see in children's books too.
The only feed back I might give is the font issue, it was really hard to read at times and the font seemed to not be consistently aligned at all with each page. Other than that, it was a really nice and simple story that had a good overall plot, characters and simple sentence structure for children to understand.

This is a very cute book and the illustrations are lovely. My son enjoyed it but I think he got a bit confused by the amount of different people/names included. Other than that, we would probably regularly reach for this book!

Such a cute read about a day as a firefighter. This book included fun illustrations and a storyline that kept my 5 year old interested! Who doesn’t love saving an ice cream shop. As a parent I enjoyed reading this to my 5 year old and loved the letter from the firefighters leaving the station in the hands of a little boy! My son is already hoping the rocket ship at the end means there will be another story of a day in a rocket ship! Great writing and overall a great story to enjoy with my children.
