Where There's Smoke

Bodie lives on a farm in the middle of the bush. One hot January day, a bulldozer cuts a new track near the creek and firefighters back-burn around their house – a bushfire is coming, and smoke fills the air. The fire comes closer; fire trucks arrive to fight the fire – will their house be saved?

Bodie and his mum shut all the doors and windows, and make sure there is no rubbish around the house that can catch fire, all the while listening to their CB to keep track of what's going on.

'Where There's Smoke' is a timely book for summer, dealing with what firefighters do when a bushfire gets close, and what you can do to protect your property.
