Filled with the sounds, sights and movements of a fire engine responding to an emergency, Fire Engine is Flashing is an exciting picture book for toddlers and preschoolers explaining how a fire fighting team respond when the fire alarm rings at the station.
Fox and his team dress in their fire fighting gear and quickly drive the fire engine through the streets to get to the fire. Once there, they organise their equipment to keep everyone safe and even rescue a lady from the top floor of the burning building.
Part of the Busy Wheels series, Fire Engine is Flashing captures the sense of urgency and excitement of the fire fighting team responding to an emergency. This book is sure to appeal to young readers interested in cars, trucks and emergency vehicles.
