From Susan Elya and #1 NYT bestselling and Caldecott-winning illustrator Dan Santat comes a spirited, fast-paced picture book that captures the excitement and importance of firefighters’ jobs.
At the station, sirens sound.
Corazones start to pound.
“House fire!” says el capitán.
“¡Fuego! Get your helmets on!”
So begins a rollicking race to save a burning casa from the roaring flames, and these bomberos are up to the task, with hoses ready and sirens blaring.
Susan Elya’s melodic, bilingual verse pairs beautifully with bestseller Dan Santat’s bold illustrations, telling an action-packed story of firefighters and the dangers they overcome.
