I Want To Be

Have you ever been so afraid of something that you are so sure when you grow up that is the one thing that you do not want to be? Well, in the latest installment of When I Grow Up I Want To Be….. books from Wigu Publishing Will, the little boy in the story faces such a dilemma.

Here is a brief summary of the book.

Will was excited to go on his class field trip, until he learned they would be touring the local firehouse. Now, he is dreading the trip. For as long as he can remember, Will has been afraid of fire and, worse than that, firefighters! Though he knows firefighters are heroes who do dangerous work, to him they are giants in heavy coats and masks. As he journeys with his class through the fire station, Will and readers alike are introduced to the exciting world of firefighting. Can Will overcome his fears and maybe even learn something surprising about himself?

Will soon learns after arriving at the fire station that things are not as scary as he thinks. I will have to say that once again Wigu Publishing has made a book that not only entertains but teaches as well. I love how they take a child’s fear and tells them that it is okay to be afraid but not to let that fear control them.

This book would be a great teaching tool during Fire Safety Week. I know that most schools have a fireman come visit during this week but this will help prepare the children for the visit and remind them of all the things a fireman does after their visit. I also love how they included a list of fire safety tips in the back of the book. What a great way to remind children about fire safety!! So if you are looking for a cute book that entertains as well as teaches than this line of books by Wigu Publishing is just what you need. Read my review of their book, When I Grow Up I Want To Be a Teacher here.

So what do you want to be when you grow up??
