Product Information

* "A hundred years from now, when people want to know what we told our children about 9/11, Kalman's book should be among the first answers."-- Booklist , starred review * "Intelligently conveys those unfathomable events in a way that a picture book audience can comprehend. . . . With this inspiring book, Kalman sensitively handles a difficult subject in an age-appropriate manner."-- Publishers Weekly , starred review * " Fireboat does many things. It sets forth an adventure, helps commemorate an anniversary, offers an interesting bit of history, celebrates the underdog, and honors the fire-fighting profession. Children and adults will respond to it in as many ways."-- School Library Journal , starred review * "Exciting, uplifting, and child-sensitive. . . . Revisits the tragedy without the terror and conveys pride without preachiness."-- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books , starred review * "Quintessential New York artist Kalman gives us an idiosyncratic but informative look at a Big Apple institution. . . . Kalman's use of the events of September 11 is honest and honorable, and rarely is she as straightforward as she is here."-- The Horn Book , starred review This is the inspiring true story of the John J. Harvey--a retired New York City fireboat reinstated on September 11, 2001. Originally launched in 1931, the Harvey was the most powerful fireboat of her time. After the September 11 attacks, with fire hydrants at Ground Zero inoperable and the Hudson River's water supply critical to fighting the blaze, the fire department called on the Harvey for help. There were adjustments--forcing water into hoses by jamming soda bottles and wood into nozzles with a sledgehammer--and then the fireboat's volunteer crew pumped much-needed water to the disaster site. The John J. Harvey proved she was still one of New York's Bravest! Maira Kalman brings a New York City icon to life, celebrating the energy, vitality and hope of a place and its people.

"A hundred years from now, when people want to know what we told our children about 9/11, Kalman's book should be among the first answers." - Booklist, starred review, * "Kalman does some extraordinary things in this beautiful picture book. She takes the fireboat's history and puts it within the context of a city that has endured, framing the enormity of 9/11 so young readers, and even small children, can begin to grasp what happened. At the same time, she makes the event part of life's continuum of loss and endurance. Her artistry is as compassionate as it is brilliant. Wonderful, sweeping images of New York icons bring the city to life; detailed images of the Harvey do the same for the boat. . . . It is vivid, but the stark, sensitive rendering is also somehow easier to absorb than the horrible photographs burned into our hearts. By focusing on the boat and the people who worked on it, loved it, and placed it at the service of their city, Kalman casts a blessing far and wide. . . . A hundred years from now, when people want to know what we told our children about 9/11, Kalman's book should be among the first answers. " -- Booklist , starred review * "Fireboat does many things.

  • 9/11/2001 for Children

    The importance of the event which occured on 9/11/2001 can not be minimized and Ms. Kalman has found a compelling way to tell this incident throught a story line which children will be able to identify with. Her gifts as an illustrator who commands the gift of putting both word and picture together makes this a must read for children who will all grow up in a different world because of that day. If you think you should stay away from this topic for children, you will change your mind after you read this work. Get it!

  • FIREBOAT by Maira Kalman

    This book is one of my son's FAVORITES. Not only is the book about the famous fireboat that did so much for New York City, but also, that it is a topic that doesn't show up often. You always find books on fire trucks and firemen but never about a fire BOAT! It's a real winner at this house for sure!!

  • Wonderfully written to des the events of 9/11 great art

    I like this book to teach young students about the tragedy on 9/11. It helps the reader realize the amount of people that were affected and the teamwork that went into action to help. The illustrations are colorful and gain the readers interest.
