JordanWell, it depends what your talking about! In the beginning ALl the boys set the tree on fire because they wanted to make a rescue signal.....and at the end of the story the kid with the blond hair set the whole Island on fire. I'm not sure what the kids name was in the story(I kind of forgot) but I'm pretty sure that he was the one who set it on fire because he wanted piggy and the other one to basically get off the island one way or another(If you know what I mean? Anyways, I hope that helps! :D
