Kirkus Reviews

“Beaty’s tongue-in-cheek humor keeps the pages turning until finally Ted’s diligence pays off and he really does put out a fire—and the scene is set for another sequel. Lemaitre’s brilliant colors fairly jump off the pages. Capitalizing on the understated tone, his characters brim with personality and the scenes the the real story. Sure to fire up kids’ imaginations while tickling their funny bones at the same time.”

 

Booklist

“The descriptive prose is simple and peppy, and the colorful illustrations nicely depict the diverse animal characters’ amusing expressions as they react to the mayhem Ted inadvertently causes.”

 

School Library Journal

“Beaty and Lemaitre, who previously teamed up for Doctor Ted, again bring a light hand to their story. Ted is lovable despite his bumbling and his tendency to cause more trouble. A good book for all wannabe firefighters and for those who just love a fun story.”
