As a school teacher in an area of mixed cultures I always look for literature that helps to bridge the cultural divide. I was very lucky to stumble upon this tale of one girls dream that she was determined to prove possible. The Spanish and English translations sharing the same page create a wonderful opportunity for classmates to share knowledge and information about their cultural background. This story is also one that helps bring about awareness of gender equality that is far too often ignored at a young age. The amazing art and colorful illustrations will help to keep the interest of wide audience of readers. The author has a wonderful talent at telling a tale that all ages will enjoy. I am extremely happy with my purchase and I look forward to more adventures of the girl in the pink fire truck.

I love Pink Fire Trucks!! I gave it to my niece and her little friends because I believe in the message. My niece has always wanted to be a Police Officer, but always hesitates to express it because everyone tells her that being a Police Officer is a boy's job. After reading Pink Fire Trucks, my niece is happy to tell everyone that she is going to be a Police officer because a Police Officer can be a woman or a man---just like the Firefighter in Pink Fire Trucks! This book empowers little girls and encourages them to follow their dreams...

The children are very excited to celebrate Career Day at their school. Gladys wants to be a firefighter when she grows up but feels discouraged by Rudy, a boy in her class, who insists she should “stick to a girl job.” With grace and strength, Gladys proves that girls can do anything boys can do.“Pink fire trucks” is a bilingual picture book which shows young girls they can break out of the traditional job roles for women, and expand their horizons into careers previously closed to them.Recommended for ages 6-10.
