Ring! Clang! Firefighter Flo and her team race to stop a fire in this picture book filled with bold art and fun onomatopoeia.
Last night at the Fire Station...With a jingly-jang, the telephone rang.
RING-RING! RING-RING!
Firefighter Flo jumps out of bed! There's a fire and only a pro like Flo and her team can help. Read along as the firefighters put on their fireproof suits, rush off in their truck, douse the fire with the big hose, and rescue the family pet. The CLANG of the siren and WHOOSH of the fire will have parents and kids reading aloud together. The Big Jobs, Bold Women series introduces even the youngest readers to women as leaders in unusual jobs with teams relying on them. The first in the series, Fire Flo makes this empowering message accessible with a showstopping art and story about a job every kid loves. With dynamic artwork from Dan Yaccarino, Nickelodeon character designer for The Backyardians, and energetic verse from Andrea Zimmerman, best-selling author of Trashy Town, Firefighter Flo is the perfect read for kids who love to watch the big red fire trucks rush by.
