Wood burning stove

A wood burning stove is like a special kind of oven that you can use to make things really hot by burning pieces of wood inside of it. It looks like a big metal box with a door that you open to put the wood pieces inside.

When you start a fire in the stove, the flames will make the metal walls of the stove get really hot, and that heat will spread out into the room where the stove is sitting. It's like the stove is sending out heat waves that you can feel all around you.

People like using wood burning stoves because they can be a good way to keep a room warm when it's cold outside. Plus, burning wood can create a cozy, crackling fire that makes everything feel nice and homey. But it's important to be careful when using a wood burning stove, because the fire can be dangerous and you don't want to get too close to it.
