Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 1-3?Told simply and clearly, this story shows how plants and animals adapt to changes as their habitat moves through a cycle of death and destruction to rebirth and renewal. A bolt of lightning ignites an old, dead pine. As the fire spreads, the valley is engulfed by heat, smoke, and wind. Richly textured acrylic illustrations take readers from vibrant forest to threatening storm, orange blaze, and finally to the charred and barren landscape that continues to smolder for months. While the forest appears dead, it soon begins to show signs of recovery. This nicely illustrated title captures the immediate and long-range effects, both large and small, of a dramatic natural occurrence.?Lisa Wu Stowe, Great Neck Library, NY
