Sound the alarm -- we've finally got another book worth buying!
THREE PROS
*Absolutely the perfect length for a kiddie book
*Super innovative rhyming that even finds a way to work in words like billowing and townsfolk

*I really like the way the bears are drawn (by Dan Andreasen); they aren't exactly teddy bear-esque but still have a cuddly quality about them
THREE CONS
THREE CONS
*Not sure why Rhonda Gowler Greene chose to include the phrase "the rescue team" but I can tell you it's really weird to say (although I guess it makes everything a bit more memorable)
*Getting a cat-up-the-tree call shouldn't be classified as a false alarm since that is part of the job
*Poplar Street doesn't look to have an intersecting road at the spot of the fire, but the subsequent page magically creates one
ONE DAD'S OPINION
I always like to tread lightly when it comes to books that involve topics my son is predisposed to liking. But I can't help but get fired up about this one. It is a clear winner in any household. Slide down that pole to your nearest Barnes and Noble and grab a copy today.
