Synopsis

Jump aboard a fire engine with a brave band of animal firefighters in this exciting picture book. Wheels whirl, sirens scream and bright lights flash as the firefighters race out of the station and off to the rescue in their noisy engine. An audio CD attached to the inside back cover allows children to listen to the story and follow along with page turn cues. This popular picture book series makes learning about vehicles more fun than ever before. Each of the "Amazing Machines" picture books features lively rhyming text and bold, bright pictures of fun animal characters. A picture dictionary at the back of every book helps build vocabulary. "Four Amazing Machines" with CD will be published in June 2007, and a further six titles will be published in October 2007.
