The STory of Fireman Fred & Fireman noah

The STory of Fireman Fred & Fireman noah

This is Fireman Fred, who was once the only firefighter in the town of Smallville.

Fireman Fred worked at the fire station downtown.

He knew everyone in town: Gwen the police chief, Curious George, Mr. Potato Head, Elmo and the Sesame Street Gang, Wolverine, and Wally the Green Monster.

He knew the trains on the tracks,

and the construction workers on the construction site.

He even knew the planes and the helicopters at the airport.

Fireman Fred was friends with everyone, but sometimes he wished he had a friend who was a firefighter just like him.

One morning, Fireman Fred woke up to the sound of the fire alarm.

r i i i nnnGGG riiinnnG G G!

Fire at Graystone Castle on King Road!

r i i i nnnGGG riiinnn

G G G!

Fireman Fred jumped out of bed, grabbed his gear, and slid down the pole.

He climbed into his fire engine and quickly drove through the town.

Weeeee ohhhhhh Weeeee ohhhhhh Weeeee ohhhhhh!!!

He drove past the school, the hospital,

Weeeee ohhhhhh Weeeee ohhhhhh Weeeee ohhhhhh!!!

the baseball park, and the beach.

He went past the farm, the playground,

and the trains.

When he arrived at Graystone Castle,

it was the biggest fire he had ever seen! Fireman Fred wasn’t sure he could put it out all by himself.

Just then, fire crews from all the nearby towns arrived to help put out the fire. Even Dot the Firedog showed up!

Fireman Fred hooked up his hose to a fire hydrant.

With help from his new team of firefighters he sprayed water on the fire.

The fire was blazing when all of a sudden Fireman Fred heard people calling for help from one of the towers!

He climbed up the ladder to rescue them!

Even with help from all the firefighters, the castle was still on fire. That’s when, over the horizon, the firefighters saw someone! Who couLd

He took out his firehose and sprayed the fire with all his might...

Everybody cheered and shouted with glee,

thanK you Fireman noah!

The next day, the Mayor of Smallville awarded Noah and Fred medals to thank them for saving Graystone Castle and the entire city from such a big fire.

Everyone was so proud of Noah and Fred.

Best of all, Fireman Fred had a new firefighter friend. He was so happy that he declared Noah the Fire Chief of Smallville.

And that is the story about how Fireman Noah & Fireman Fred became best friends.
