Look inside
A rhyming Little Golden Book that teaches colors in an exciting story about firefighters doing their job and having fun!

This rhyming Little Golden Book follows a team of diverse firefighters who bravely save the day—and still manage to celebrate their captain's birthday. Young children will love pointing out the colors featured on each page of this fun, fast-paced story: 

Quickly! Stretch the yellow hose!

Start the hydrant. There it goes!

Aim the rushing stream of blue.

Spray the roof and windows, too.
