Do you smell something burning?

Today we had to return our books to the school library. One of the girls in my class said she didn't have hers. When I asked her where it was she said it was over at her dad's. Then she proceeded to add that she didn't know when she would be back over there. Before I could ask why not, she stated "My mom and dad aren't allowed to talk to each other because the other night she get really mad at him and set his car on fire." I didn't ask but I'm hoping the library book wasn't left inside the vehicle. A charred copy of Charlotte's Web anyone?
