About the Book
|
Each year millions of animals are killed or maimed by forest fires. Houses are destroyed and people are left homeless or trapped by the hot blazing heat.
Morgan, a North American porcupine, born in the hills of the Adirondacks awoke one morning to the scent of smoke. His trusty friend Isabelle had left earlier, before the fire erupted, to meet with a church group to hike to the waterfalls.
Volunteers raced to the campground on the east side of the mountain to form teams to fight the fires. Amid the raging inferno and monster dense clouds, a sky angel appeared instructing Morgan to enter the mountain, on the west side and follow a trail to a cave called the Black Hole.
Along the way, he met Black Diamond, a significant ingenious crow, who gave additional instructions, about entering the darkness of the cave and a special rock that would help light his way.
Morgan encountered bravery on this journey, more so than ever before. His courage gave him purpose to believe in himself. He knew scorching fires lay ahead while unknown dangers such as deadly rattlesnakes, fisher cats, and burning trees would threaten his life.
Through pure determination, a keen sense of smell, discovering evidence to an arsonist and, using good judgment Morgan never gave up. He never knew if he would find the church group but he knew also they may never be found if he didn’t try.
