Content

Children are fascinated by fire trucks and ambulances with their sirens and flashing lights. What other rescue vehicles are there? Eleven detailed scenes invite children to explore and discover firefighters putting out a fire, a boot helping someone in distress at sea, a helicopter landing on the roof of a hospital, and much more. On each spread, a column of small pictures identifies things children can search for in the larger scene.

About the Series

The popular books from the successful “Things to Find” series allow children as young as 2 to playfully explore the world. These books about the most important topics for children feature numerous images of things to find on the edges of the pages, encouraging children to recognise and name things. Incidentally, this also inspires them to freely tell their first stories, optimally supporting language acquisition. Finding items in the search-and-find images provides children with a first sense of achievement and boosts their confidence.
