Three gleeful critters dress as firefighters, drive a big red engine, put out a fire, and even rescue someone in this follow-up to Dazzling Diggers, Roaring Rockets, and Terrific Trains. The rhyming text and brilliant yellow- and red-hued cartoon-style watercolors strike a light tone that plays up the age-appropriate allurements of firefighting.
