AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'One small spark brought fire awake

'Winding like a small black snake

'Fire flickered, fire crept

'Flames snickered, bushfire leapt...

'Inspired by the bushfires that have affected many Australians, Fire is a moving and sensitive story of a natural disaster as seen through the eyes of a cockatoo. The fire mercilessly engulfs homes and land, leaving a devastating path of destruction.

'But from the ruins, courage, kindness and new life grows.

'A beautiful and timely expression of the strength of the Australian spirit during times of adversity. ' (Publication summary)
