How do wildfires start? How are they stopped? And what happens to the forest animals during and after such a catastrophic event? Wildfire! takes readers aged 3-8 into the heart of a forest fire and shows how animals survive, how heroic first responders curb the flames, and how life gradually returns to the forest. This timely picture book is perfect for children concerned about changes to our natural lands and curious about how wildfires are fought.

“A handsome, well-researched tribute to forest ecology and the brave people who help protect it” — Kirkus Reviews

 “A lightning strike ignites a fire on Spruce Mountain, spurring animals and people into action in this sweeping picture book. Juxtaposing animals’ experiences with those of human first responders, Wolff maintains tension throughout via concise text and richly saturated landscapes rendered in gouache.” — Publisher’s Weekly
