 Very cute book July 14, 2009
A. Wallace
This book is a very cute rendition of what a day in the life of a police officer is like.
Flashback to childhood! July 11, 2009
Teacher Mom (Michigan USA)
I love Richard Scarry and have some wonderful memories of being read his books as a child. I wanted that experience for my children and the books brought me back a significant amount of nostalgia and feelings of comfort.
Each page is loaded with beautifully illustrated pictures that allow for extended conversation and what if questions to engage the child. We easily spent half an hour talking about all of the cute little images packed into each page.
Wonderful fun, wonderful memories!
Another fantastic Richard Scarry educational book November 23, 2007
Gary Selikow (Great Kush)
Another fantastic Richard Scarry educational book, with his world of anthropomorphic animals in Busytown and Workville.
Mrs Murphy has to go to Workville and asks Sergeant Murphy look after Bridget.
Sarge takes Bridget with him to the police station and here Bridget watches Sarge respond to a scare by Hilda Hippo, helps him take a lost toddler back to the police station and call her mother, respond to an accusation by Mr Gronkle of a robbery and rescue Bananas Gorilla after his bananamobile plunges into the water.
Always fun for children as this one teaches kids about a typical work day at the police station, and why being a police officer is very important.
I learned to read with Richard Scarry and am glad to note that the Richard Scarry corporation is still coming up with books about his characters.
Daddy loves this book! August 7, 2007

My husband is a deputy and loves to read this book to our still-in-womb little girl. It's a funny book with quirky little situations presented.

4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Our 4 year old loves R. Scarry - Lowley the worm one of our favorites. We were extraordinarily disappointed with "A Day at the Police Station". An infant lost from the mom, a ghost in the bathroom (great help for potty training) I mean come on. Weak effort, not thought out - too bad. 3/4 of the book is great but that 1/4 just overwhelming.
