Sixteen-year-old Poppy doesn't mind responsibility.

So when Poppy's widowed dad leaves her and her brother while he helps fight a distant wildfire, she's confident she can manage. Her brother Jed has a disability and sometimes needs support, but there's plenty to keep them both busy around the house and the farm. They'll be fine. Then the wind changes and the wildfire heads straight for the farm. With no word from their dad, Poppy and Jed know they should get to safety, but what will they do with the farm animals? As the air fills with smoke and flames flicker on the horizon, Poppy and Jed must gather their unlucky collection of animals and make a desperate escape.

This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for teen readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don't like to read!
