Make A Difference Minute: Teaching Fire Safety Through Storytelling
from The Mark White Show · host Mark White
On this Make a Difference Minute, I have Russellville firefighter and EMT Alejandro Wallace as he shares how a passion for protecting lives led him to write the children’s book, A Day at the Fire Station with Dad. As a firefighter, Alejandro has seen firsthand the importance of fire prevention and education. Some of his most rewarding moments have come when children recognize him and say they remembered what firefighters taught them in school and were able to use that knowledge when it mattered. The inspiration for his book came even closer to home. As his young daughter began asking questions and exploring the world around her, Alejandro realized that a story could capture her attention in a way a lecture never could. That idea became a book designed to help children learn fire safety in a fun, engaging, and memorable way. His goal is to equip children with knowledge that could one day save a life. You can find A Day at the Fire Station with Dad on Amazon or follow Wallace Bookshelf on Facebook.
