Nozzlehead Adventure #2

by T.J. Spencer, Dodot Asmoro (Illustrations)

Nozzlehead's Adventure "Helping Hands" is Book 2 of a 3 book series written by a Professional Firefighter who shares scaled down versions of 911 calls that he has been on. Book 2 picks up where book 1 left off as the firefighters Nozzlehead, Halfcap, Scout and their fire dog help neighbors and assist the communities of Warmville. In book 1, following a barn fire the crew found a surprise. In book 2 they are able to find a home and return their new friend. They also assist grandma when she requires medical attention and they discover that some fires can be safe. The illustrations by Dodot Asmoro are once again too incredible to describe. This is a must have book for any toddler and even the toughest of firefighters out there.
