Hugo the Flying Firefighter tells the story of a
humble and unexpected hero, who thinks quickly and does what needs to be done
when there’s a fire at his neighbour’s
house.
The people of Hometown are lucky to have Hugo hovering above as they are
too busy going about their own activities to notice the smoke.
The
book includes an illustrated map of Hometown which is great for following
Hugo’s journey and initiating further discussion with children. Bright and bold
painted illustrations couple perfectly with the cute and adventurous story,
making it perfect for ages 3 - 5.
Hugo
can also be found in two other adventurous books: Hugo the Lifesaving Sailor and
Hugo’s Motorcycle Rescue.
