Klassikkotarina sankarillisista palomiehistä alkuperäisenä, laajempana versiona. Pim-pom! soi palokunnan hälytyskello. Viiden reippaan pikku palosotilaan on jätettävä päivällisensä kesken.

Ehkä pienet lukijat vuorostaan löytävät sarjan kirjoista tarinoita, joita he muistelevat vielä vuosikymmentenkin päästä.
