Evie is a spirit girl. When her island home is devastated by bushfire, she emerges from the shelter of her cave to discover her community has lost all hope. But Evie refuses to believe that hope can be destroyed alongside homes and livelihoods. ' The fire may have taken many things, but the fire can never take everything,' she says. Inspired by bushfires that have affected many Australians, Evie and the Bushfire is a moving and sensitive story of surviving a natural disaster, narrated through the eyes of children.
' An amazing story told of hope in the form of brave and unrelenting Evie will instil in many children the sense of courage and being brave that we need now and for the future. ' - Cathie Tydeman
Becky Westbrook was born and raised on beautiful Kangaroo Island in South Australia. Her childhood was spent in nature; hiking, swimming, and exploring wild places. She began writing stories as a young girl and has always loved being told a good story. After becoming a mother to three wild children of her own, she was inspired to write stories for them that would fill them with a love for wild places, hope for their future, and compassion for others. Her first book Children of the Wild is based on many of her own childhood experiences in nature and is a testimony to protecting the few remaining wild places left on Earth. Jet James is an award-winning Australian artist recognised for printmaking, painting and mixed media artworks. Jet has won many accolades including a shortlisting in the National Youth Portrait Prize of Australia, Winner of the Charles Ware, National Young Artist Award, and in 2015 he was selected as one of the leading printmakers for an exhibition in New Zealand.
