HORN BOOK - STARRED REVIEW
"Friendly, direct-address text covers firefighter training....The writing is clear and specific, and the expansive, colorful acrylic illustrations, including labeled diagrams, are themselves quite informative.... Firefighters’ camaraderie comes through clearly"

SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL - BETSY BIRD/FUSE #8
"I give you Meghan McCarthy’s Firefighters’ Handbook. It is everything you have ever wanted in a book of this nature and more. This is the book that your children and, to be frank, you, deserve. Go on. Crack it over. You’re worth it."
