Little Smokey
Written by and Illustrated by Robert Neubecker
Summary:
When forest fires blaze, the airplanes at Nif-C spring into action! Some swoop low to spray water on the flames. Others drop bright red fire retardant. Little Smokey hasn't quite figured out her job yet, but she wants to help. . . . And when a fire like no other flares up--a fire that none of the other planes can control--it's Smokey's turn to show what she's made of.
Little Smokey is a tale of courage and teamwork in the face of disaster.

Ana, fourth grade: I wish they wouldn't have given so much information at one time. I think they should have just given five quick facts about forest fires. A lot of kids don't want to take the time to read all of it. Neither did I.
