Fire escape : how animals and plants survive wildfires / by Jessica Stremer ; illustrated by Michael Garland.
"Have you ever wondered what happens to animals and plants during a wildfire, or how an ecosystem rebuilds after the flames go out? Are you curious about the tools and techniques that are used to prevent wildfires, or concerned about the worldwide increase in megafires? The relationship between fire and nature is complex, interwoven, and ever-changing. Humans can learn a lot from how the natural world responds to wildfire--and you can be part of the team that discovers the answers."-- Back cover.
