Firebears: The Rescue Team

(4) PS Illustrated by Dan Andreasen. Two of young children's abiding obsessions--animals and firefighting--are fed in this look at a team of bears who spend their days protecting the neighborhood. There's no cumulative payoff--the story amounts to a series of disasters narrowly averted--but the rhymes snap and the illustrations offer the right blend of menace (smoking buildings) and reassurance (toylike bears).
