“Jonathan Banks’ narration radiates pride as he chronicles a fire engine’s day from station to fire emergency and back again. With firm confidence, he catalogs the equipment and tools housed on the truck—chocks, mauls, and Halligan tools included. His pacing is such that young listeners will thoughtfully picture each item. As the fire call comes in, Banks’ voice crescendos and speeds as the engine barks out orders. Accompanying sound effects and music mirror the rising action. Listeners of all ages will relish this addition to the McMullan stable of working vehicles. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
