“Toddlers will enjoy learning about helpful heroes. Very engaging.” - Whitman Public Library Fires are really dangerous. Luckily there are firefighters! They jump into their special suits and within minutes they are at the fire. But they also help people in other ways…. An instructive picture book for children about the brave men who fight fires.

With clear language and cheerful drawings, this series presents many of the most popular professions. Each book is packed with fun facts, new words, and interesting stories of real professionals. Do you know why an astronaut wears such a funny suit? How about why it is so difficult to be a ballerina or a racecar driver? Or why it’s important to visit the dentist twice a year? Read these books to learn the answers to these questions! So . . . what do you want to be when you grow up?

Biographical note

Liesbet Slegers (1975, Belgium) studied Graphics and Illustrations at the Saint-Lucas institute of Antwerp. She works as a fulltime graphic designer and illustrator. With her simple, recognizable style and vivid colours she knows how to attract the attention of every toddler. In her many books, Slegers frequently focuses on “the first experience of a toddler,” a time she characterized as “exciting but also very scary! I try to help them with my books,” she added, “and also try to give the parents or teacher some assistance!”
