Description
Publisher's Description of Bushfire Rescue - Book 2 (Extreme Adventures)
Action has a new hero - Sam Fox! With a talent for attracting danger, Sam Fox is an expert at getting himself into (and out of) the most extreme situations. This series has a strong appeal with a courageous young hero and exotic settings and has non-stop action and short chapters which will engage reluctant readers.
It's the holidays and Sam Fox has gone to the high country to stay with his grandparents. While trying to stop cattle rustlers from stealing a stud bull, an injured Sam is isolated in the mountains during a horrific bushfire. To survive, he must rely on his courage; ingenuity, and the help of Chainsaw--a mad old rodeo bull!

Category Description for Extreme Adventures
Join Sam Fox on his series of dangerous misadventures that will have you on the edge of your seat! Sam is a teenager who seems to always find himself in the midst of a dangerous situation, whether being attacked by a dangerous animal or getting caught in a natural disaster of some sort such as a bushfire or giant wave. It seems like bad things always happen; will he ever be safe? These books are exciting reads you won't want to put down!
Parents, some of the action might be a little violent for your preferences. For example, in Shark Bait, Sam is captured by parrot smugglers who later shoot at him as he makes an escape and one of the smugglers is even killed by a cassowary. Also, there is a little bit of misinformation about some of the animals in the books, but these are otherwise a very energetic read. These would be great for a student who needs to work on chapter book skills: exciting and quick starting. Approx. 140 softcover pages each. - Laura
