The sky is grey and hazy. The smell of smoke fills the air. In the distance there's a roar, like a freight train. Flames rush through the forest, engulfing everything in their path. Lush green trees turn to blazing matchsticks. Wildfires rip through forests, choke the air with smoke and destroy homes. Some wildfires are sparked by nature. Others are started by humans. All come with devastating results. In this book, readers will find out the science behind wildfires, learn about recent wildfires around the world, and discover what's being done to prevent them.
