It's another busy day for Stanley and friends on the fire engine!
Stanley keeps his fire engine in tip-top condition. It has a tall ladder, a big water tank, and a long hose. When Charlie's barbecue gets out of control, Stanley jumps to the rescue. CLANG! CLANG! CLANG! Out of the way!
Accessible text and brightly colored illustrations helpfully convey fire safety for toddlers who love equipment, tools, and vehicles. After a hard day at work, Stanley winds down his day with a familiar supper and bath routine that makes this series a great pick for bedtime reading!
William Bee's beloved Stanley series is a trusted model for basic preschool concepts like colors and shapes, kindness and teamwork, jobs and daily routines. Toddlers will love hanging out with this adorable cast of friendly neighborhood critters in any of the available series titles. Help your little one collect them all!
William Bee is an artist and commercial designer who has worked for renowned fashion houses, including Issay Miyake and Paul Smith. As well as writing children's picture and board books, he races a vintage sports car, is an international skier, and when at home tends his lawns and meadow. He lives in England.
"It's no wonder that young children, who crave stability in their lives, relate so strongly to the Stanley the Hamster picture-book series. Beyond their interest in Stanley's daily activities, kids enjoy the well-structured lines and cheerful colors of the art as well as the steady, reassuring tone of the narrative. An enjoyable read-aloud choice, especially leading up to holidays involving fireworks." —Booklist
"An adorable hamster, a fire engine, and fireworks: high preschooler appeal." —Kirkus Reviews
