Product Description

Billy and Blaze are more than just friends -- they're heroes! When they spot smoke in the brush, they race through the woods to sound the alarm.

At the end of the day, Billy and Blaze are rewarded for their bravery -- with carrots for Blaze, chocolate cake for Billy, and a very special present that they can share.

Blaze and the Forest Fire is part of the classic Billy and Blaze series. Sensitive drawings and easy-to-read words capture the warmth and special understanding between a boy and his horse.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great Blaze book, March 7, 2004

By	Miss Tresninos "mistresninos" (SoCal) - See all my reviews

My 7 yo son loves the Billy and Blaze series. This series is an excellent one for boys. Even if you don't think they have an interest in horses.

There is great adventure, like only a boy could imagine. And the stories are not so inane that the parents reading them cry for mercy. ;-)

I recommend it and my son highly recommends it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, extraordinary book!, July 16, 1998

This review is from: Blaze and the Forest Fire (Turtleback)

C.W. Anderson has outdone himself with this Billy and Blaze story. I love most of his Blaze series with its timeless feel and innocence; what life used to be about. Blaze and Billy are put in a situation of defending the entire forest. They must make their way over hill and dale to alert the neighbouring farm. Will they make it... well I wont spoil it for you. Blaze and the Forest Fire is a unique and wonderful book. You will love it.

Blaze And The Forest Fire: Billy And Blaze Spread The Alarm (Billy and Blaze Books)

My 4 year old boy and I really enjoy the adventures had by this boy and his horse. The old fashioned black and white or sepia drawings are well done and fit the "old west" theme. Some stories have a slight hint at danger, but everything works out. There is a forest fire, a mountain lion, a wild horse. Billy is a problem solver. So far we have read 6 books in this series they are all very good. We recommend them.
