Fire on the Wind — Linda Crew

"Set in the Oregon woods of 1933, this swift paced novel gives us a young girl living a life she loves in a remote logging camp...When the fabled Tillamook Burn begins with a small blaze in Gales Creek Canyon, we feel the danger, care about the people and the woods. Along with the characters, we hope for the best, continue to live their lives with them, and finally must face the ultimate horror. An expertly written, realistic, and altogether impressive novel. It teaches, but it also excites and cuts to the heart. Get it for your kids. And read it yourself." Dan Hays, Salem Stateman Journal.
