Reseña del editor:

Saving Li'l Smokey details the exciting rescue of a tiny orphaned black bear cub. The eight pound cub was separated from his mother during the historic 2008 lightning-triggered forest fires in Northern California. The story is based on Forester and Firefighter Adam Deem's first-hand account of the amazing encounter and its aftermath. Just as Adam courageously rescued the injured little bear later named Li'l Smokey, Li'l Smokey will undoubtedly capture your heart. An inspiring and beautifully illustrated book for all ages.

Biografía del autor:

Adam is a Registered Professional Forester who works for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (Cal Fire). He has a Bachelor's degree in Forestry from Humboldt State University. He started firefighting when he was only 14, shadowing his mother at their local volunteer fire department in Murphys, California. Prior to joining Cal Fire, Adam started a private forestry consulting firm, Trayner Forestry. Adam lives near Redding, California, where he enjoys the outdoors with his wife Celeste and their two children, black Labrador Retrievers Kody and Lily. Celeste has a Bachelor's of Elementary Education from the University of Alaska Anchorage, and a Master's of Science in Counseling Psychology from Alaska Pacific University. She has worked as an elementary teacher, school counselor, and mental health therapist. Celeste grew up in Alaska, where she adopted and fell in love with her black Lab, Kody. Her avid love of nature and animals was mirrored when she met Adam while hiking in Northern California. Her motto was "Love me, love my dog," and upon meeting Adam, he immediately began tossing a stick for Kody. They were married ten months later.
