American childrens books author

[Mrsmadevans]

Hello
sorry to bother you, just wondered if anyone could put me out of my misery. I have been racking my brains to find out the author of some books l used to read in the late 60's .
l am looking for an author who wrote childrens books in the 60's . They were about an American family and the one child had a fire truck he used to ride on. I think one of the children were called Bobbie . Not much to go on but l used to love them! I think the Dad in the story was a fireman too . Thank you .

The authors who spring to mind are Eleanor Estes ( Moffat family stories), Elizabeth Enright ( Melendy family), Madeline L’Engle ( Meet the Austins) , and Beverley Cleary ( Henry Huggins and Ramona Quimby series). They were all writing around this time. However, I can’t find any references to firemen, so many not be any of them. Any help?

I can only think of Bobbie Brewster and the Bobbsy Twins (sp?) for Bobbies.

Bobbie Brewster is not American. Could be the Bobbsey Twins though? Although I’ve just looked them up and Dad seems to run a lumber yard, not put out fires!

Thank you all so much it's the Bobbsey twins yay!
