YOU are a hotshot firefighter-in-training in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. You are early into your training when an emergency call comes in.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
R. A. Montgomery
R. A. MONTGOMERY attended Hopkins Grammar School, Williston-Northampton School and Williams College where he graduated in 1958. He pursued graduate studies in Religion and Economics at Yale and NYU. Montgomery was an adventurer all his life, climbing mountains in the Himalaya, skiing throughout Europe and scuba-diving wherever he could. His interests included education, macro-economics, geo-politics, mythology, history, mystery novels and music. He wrote his first interactive book, Journey Under the Sea, in 1976 and published it under the series name The Adventures of You. A few years later Bantam Books bought this book and gave Montgomery a contract for five more, to inaugurate their new children’s publishing division. Bantam renamed the series Choose Your Own Adventure and a publishing phenomenon was born. The series has sold more than 260 million copies in over 40 languages. He was married to the writer Shannon Gilligan. Montgomery died in November 2014, only two months after his last book was published.

Fiona Wanner
“You can read the same books over and over, but each time, it’s a different adventure.”
Sheldon Frank
“Was looking for books that would help my 6 year old son be more interested in reading. This was a book that kept his attention because of the way he could choose different paths to the story ending. Great for a 1st grader.”
Samson B
“I remember being blown away by the concept of a book told in the 2nd-person. I cannot wait to introduce my own kids to these wonderful books.”
Jamie
“Great for the reluctant reader! My son enjoys being able to influence the stories. The font used is large and read easily.”
RK
“What’s fun about these books is that the reader actually becomes the story’s central character, so you get to make decisions and create an adventure. You end up reading one story in many different ways.”
