Rick and Dan make fire safety less scary and way more fun, turning important lessons into an adventure kids (and parents) will actually enjoy. 🚒✨

Rick and Dan – Fire Safety Basics is a fun and thoughtful children’s book that takes the sometimes-scary topic of fire safety and makes it approachable for kids. Through Rick, Dan, Molly, and Professor Stein, children learn real-life lessons like calling 911, understanding evacuation plans, and why only adults should handle certain tools. I enjoyed how the story mixed gentle humor, clear examples, and cozy illustrations—it felt like I was learning right alongside the kids. What I liked most was how it didn’t just give rules but explained them in a way that children (and even adults) can remember and use.

This is a great read. The book starts with a real fire which got my little one excited to make the fire engine noises, and then the book goes into education mode with Professor Stein, a beautiful looking dog, sharing the info. The book covers evacuation plans, calling 911 and listening to adults when things go wrong. This is a good story to read whilst allowing us to have a good conversation about what we would do in a fire in a non scary way,

🔥 Who knew fire safety could be this much fun? Rick and Dan aren’t just two kids—they’re the coolest little guides who make learning about emergencies way less scary and way more exciting. Between Molly’s smart questions and Professor Stein’s wild hair, I was hooked from page one. This book takes a serious topic and turns it into a safe, playful adventure that kids will actually want to read. Trust me, you’ll feel good knowing your kids are learning lifesaving tips while giggling along the way. 🚒✨
