When a forest fire almost wipes out a neighborhood, along with the grove of Oaks down the street, a young girl named Jade leaves her home to thank the fire crew, especially for saving Grandmother Oak. Her conversation with the Native American fire crew leads to the topics of nature, Native Americans, women in leadership and how to become a part of the co-sustaining process of keeping Mother Earth healthy and strong. The reader will learn much about these subjects and more in this fun book, jammed-packed with educational opportunities for children and adults.
