Firefighters in the Dark by Dashka Slater

Firefighters in the Dark

Synopsis:

At night, a girl hears the sirens from the fire station near her house.
Even though it is dark outside, she knows where they are going: to
a castle, to a garden, all the way to Pluto . . .

Dashka Slater and Nicoletta Ceccoli have crafted a dreamy ode to
firefighters everywhere and the big, brave, spectacular feats they
accomplish every day, and every night--all the world over.

 

Book Excerpt:

The fire station is near my house.

At night, I can hear the sirens howling.

I'm in my bed, and my eyes are closed,

but I listen,

and I know where they are going.
