Publisher Description
From New York Times–bestselling author and illustrator Brian Biggs comes the third board book in the collectible Tinyville Town series.
Taking us through a day in the life of another community hero, I’m a Police Officer shows readers what it’s like to be a policewoman protecting and serving the citizens of Tinyville Town, a cozy community where the people are kind, everyone says hello when they’re walking down the street, and all the townsfolk do their part to keep things running smoothly.
Brian Biggs’ read-aloud Tinyville Town series launched in 2016 with three books: the world-establishing picture book Gets to Work! and two board books, I’m a Veterinarian and I’m a Firefighter. In addition to I’m a Police Officer, it has grown to include the board book I’m a Librarian and a second picture book, Time for School!
With a nod to the busy world of Richard Scarry and the neighborhood feel of Sesame Street, the Tinyville Town series has become a favorite read for preschoolers. Using bold, comic-influenced art to illustrate a growing, thriving, diverse city full of interesting people, these books are ideal for story time and class discussions about occupations and community helpers.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Biggs follows I'm a Firefighter with another career-themed trip to the diverse municipality of Tinyville Town, following a female officer through a busy day that includes rescuing a tree-stuck cat, helping a schoolgirl cross the street, and figuring out who robbed the grocery store and bakery. The perp's description ("Big ears. Long tail. Likes bananas and donuts") and a trail of peels and crumbs leads to a runaway monkey from the zoo. Bigg's crisp narration and peppy cartooning make this an upbeat intro to a job that, as the officer explains, requires that she "be ready for anything." Up to age 3.
