Fire] Fire] by Gail Gibbons

Learn how firefighters battle flames in this classic nonfiction picture book by Washington Post/Children's Book Guild Award winner Gail Gibbons.

The alarm sounds. FIRE! FIRE! Big trucks roll out of the firehouse and race to the scene. Out come the soft hoses and aerial ladders.

Whether the fire is in the city or in the country, on the waterfront or in a deep forest, fire fighters are on the scene in moments, ready to attack the blaze.

Fire! Fire! teaches beginning readers about the important job of firefighters in the community. The book includes a glossary in the back with fire-fighting equipment keywords as well as a list of ways to prevent a fire and what to do if there is a fire.
