First grade enjoyed having Fireman Dave read his book- Dave the Friendly Fireman. We loved his book and learning about the work of a fireman, education needed to become a fireman, the process of writing, editing, and publishing a book. Thank you, Fireman Dave!! We are excited for your next book to be published!
