DIVWill the California wildfires bring Danna the summer excitement she craves?/divDIV

Her parents are safely at work. But in an instant the fire expands and threatens everything Danna and the other Pinch Canyon residents hold dear. /divDIV /divDIVIn an action-packed hour and a half, minute by minute, the wildfires will alter the lives of everyone who lives and works in Pinch Canyon—including seventeen-year-old Elony, a recent immigrant, and her young charge, Geoffrey; handsome teenager Beau Severyn and his awkward little sister, Elisabeth; and the firefighters themselves./divDIV /divDIVThis ebook features an illustrated biography of Caroline B. Cooney including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author’s personal collection./div
