Ages 3–6 StoryTumble Hill Rescue Squad: The Runaway Wheelbarrow
Tumble Hill is a town on a hill so steep that everything loose ends up at the duck pond. Today it is Ivo's wheelbarrow, full of apples, rattling down the street until it hits the handrail with a clang. Molly calls the squad. Tow pulls, Hose sprays, Chop flies, Dig digs, and every one of them has a plan. Most of the plans are wrong. The chain goes tight and the wheelbarrow will not move an inch, until Chop hears a small sound that your child has been hearing since the start. Squad Five counts the honks, shouts the number, and the tow truck walks that wheelbarrow back up the hill with every apple still in it. First episode of a new series for kids who like engines.

What's inside
Ivo's apple wheelbarrow rolls off down Tumble Hill and jams against the handrail. Molly whistles from the tower and four machines roll out: a tow truck, a fire truck, a helicopter and a digger.
Your child is Squad Five, the fifth member of the crew, with a job no machine can do: stomp the engines awake, count the tow truck's honks, and work out what is stuck in the wheel.
Five built-in pauses where the story waits for an answer. Loud engines, quick jokes, and nobody is ever in danger. It is only ever a thing that is stuck.
