Reviews

[Gabby]

Nice first reads with lovely illustrations

[Oznasia]

This series presents interesting episodes in the lives of the Boot family who live on a farm. In this one the hay barn appears to be on fire. Quick! Call the fire brigade...

Oliver, who is almost six, can read most of this (both top and lower sections) by himself. On the title page he read 'There is a little yellow duck to find on every page.' As it happened, he didn't bother with the little yellow duck. The story grabbed his attention and held it throughout.

[Krisz]

A god, funny one from Usborne!

[Paula McCrystal]

Slow starter but what a plot twist at the end

[Elliott]

Nicely educational around a tricky topic.

[The Nobbs Family]

I was disappointed that it wasn't a real fire like the title suggests - 6 year old

[Sharon]

Read this book to my grandson Jackson (his Dad is a fireman)

[Angela Randall]

I think this one might be better for 3-5 year olds as they'll actually understand it better.
