Reseña del libro "Harold Whips a Wildfire (en Inglés)"
Harold doesn't know that a fire is simmering when he rushes into the forest. He's chasing a squirrel that's wearing roller blades, and the squirrel is moving fast. Surprised by the spreading wildfire, desperate to save small animals and their homes, Harold gets help from the squirrel, a crow and neighborhood pets. But it takes fire fighters reaching the blaze, and a scolding from his parents, to teach Harold the right ways to respond to a forest fire.Colorfully and dynamically illustrated, Harold Whips a Wildfire starts with an ordinary neighborhood activity, two children at play together outdoors. It moves to a lesson in good manners as Harold franticly races to recover his friend's toys. The story quickly turns to the big theme of wildfires and their effects. It gives a lesson in forest-animal habitat and wildfire danger, and it guides a child to the best response to a fire. While pleasing children with a playful, rollicking tale, the book illustrates neighborliness, and it shows responsibility in several ways, including care for the environment and respect for first responders. Harold Whips a Wildfire is the fourth book of New England outdoor adventures that feature big-hearted but mischievous Harold. Like all Harold books, it is part of the White Mountain Children's Adventure series. Other books in the White Mountain Children's Adventure series are Harold and Gina Meet a Moose, Harold the Helpful Hiker, Harold Leaps into Lake Winnie, and Harold Skis the Steeps. All of the books are freestanding and do not need to be read in any sequence. All contain charming, encouraging and action-packed stories that convey accurate knowledge and understanding of Nature to children, while encouraging children to be active and enjoy the outdoors.
