Pietje Puk wordt brandweerman by Henri Arnoldus

Why read the book?

This is a lively story for children who love the excitement of fire engines and helmets and the thrill of coming to the rescue. Pietje throws himself into the work with his usual eager good cheer.

It offers plenty of friendly action and a gentle lesson in helping others, with the familiar faces of Keteldorp cheering their postman on as he takes up a new and important duty.

Favourite quote

What I Loved

I loved seeing Pietje take on a brave new job with such enthusiasm. His readiness to serve the village, helmet and all, is wonderfully cheering, and the book mixes a little excitement with a big helping of warmth and kindness.

Key Takeaway

True courage is simply the willingness to help others when they need you.
