San Diego firefighters from La Jolla’s Station 13 on Nautilus Street visited dozens of young locals Nov. 4 at the La Jolla/Riford Library for a story and lesson.

They shared hats and stickers with the children, read “Firefighter Duckies,” demonstrated their protective gear, answered questions about their jobs and explained their equipment as part of the “Human Library” series.
