Emergency by Margaret Mayo, Illustrated by Alex Ayliffe

Emergency! by Margaret Mayo, Illustrated by Alex Ayliffe is one of the books we picked up at the Kukdukoo childrens fest recently. You might have noticed a theme in the books we've shared so far - vehicles. Luffy has gotten more and more interested in vehicles over the past 6 months so this book fits perfectly into the theme. Each page is dedicated to one particular kind of emergency vehicle. It's a simple book to read and at the end, there's a zoomed out view of all of the emergency vehicles "in their homes" at night.

It's surprising what you find in the second hand book bin if you have a good gut instinct and you have time. I think we came across at least one other book by the Illustrator Alex Ayliffe at the second-hand book store but we didn't pick it up.
