I'm Brave! by Kate and Jim McMullan*

A must read for fire engine junkies!
A confident fire engine shares his exciting job with readers.
Full of humor, attitude and great noise words (onomatopoeia)!
I learned some terminology while reading this book to my preschooler.  In the beginning the McMullans have the reader try to match the tools and equipment found on the engine.  Then as the reader continues reading, he/she can use picture clues to confirm or fix his/her predictions.
Strategy/skill: context clues, vocab. expanding
*Highly recommend.
