This is an entertaining presentation which is centered around a story and song I composed when my children were small about a legendary firehorse. In the tale, it in parts values of loyalty, and courage. It taps into children’s natural fascination with animals, especially ones helping out humans. The presentation also engages the kids by letting them ask questions about the life of the horses and other animals from a real firefighter. I have included one of my fire safety themed monthly videos for these holiday times. I have been recognized for my efforts in combining music with safety themes by the Los Angeles county board of supervisors, and have received a Los Angeles protectors award.
