| Synopsis
|
"The people of northern California were used to living with the
threat of wildfires. But nothing could have prepared them for the
devastating 2018 fire season, the deadliest in 100 years and the most
destructive in history. In the 20th 'I Survived' book, readers join
eleven-year-old Josh as he leaves his affluent New Jersey home for
the rural northern California town where his mother was born and
raised. Still reeling from the life-changing challenges that
propelled him and his mother across the country, Josh struggles to
adapt to a more rustic, down-to-earth lifestyle that couldn't be more
different from the one he is used to. Josh and his cousin Eleanor
bond during an overnight camping trip. But they suddenly find
themselves in the path of a fast-moving firestorm, a super-heated
monster that will soon lay waste to millions of acres of wilderness
andpossiblytheir town. Josh needs to confront the family issues
burning him up inside, but first he'll have to survive the flames
blazing all around him"Provided by publisher.
