This is the tale of The Distant Fire!
When Abel's mother falls dangerously ill, the brave 6-year-old accepts a dare to win the money to pay for a doctor. But can he possibly survive up the side of a mountain with no shirt or fire to keep him warm?
Based on an Ethiopian folk tale, adapted and written by Chip Colquhoun.
