If My Love Were a Fire Truck

Reach for this book when you want to settle a high-energy child for bed by bridging their love for loud, fast machines with the quiet security of a father's presence. It is the perfect choice for a toddler who is more interested in engines than emotions, providing a way to express deep affection through a vocabulary they already understand. The book uses imaginative scenarios involving fire trucks, trains, and planes to illustrate that a parent's love is active, protective, and limitless. Written with a gentle, rhythmic cadence, this story helps children ages 0 to 5 transition from the excitement of play to the comfort of sleep. It validates their interests while grounding them in the safety of family bonds. Parents will find it a helpful tool for bonding, especially if they are looking for a way to say 'I love you' that feels adventurous rather than just sentimental.
