Oscar lost his father, and it seems all to soon his mother is remarried and her new husband is whisking them off to live in Chicago. His families arrival coincides with the great fire of Chicago. Reportedly the fire began in a barn when a cow kicked a milk can. This book places Oscar lost from his family. Surrounded by fire and huge burning conflagrations, Oscar wonders if he will ever get out and live to tell the tale. ( ) My son and I love reading these books together, and this one was especially interesting to me, having spent a year living in Chicago during my early 20's. These books are great for new-ish readers (my son has loved them since he was 7, and he's 9 now) and older folks too! Always full of great detail, lots of adventure, and fabulous relationships! I liked this book for two main reasons. I enjoyed the language that the author used, as well as the plot in the story. The way the author writes feels as though the reader is present in the moment that they are in the story. When times are tense, the author writes in a frantic way, which brings the story to life. The plot of the story is also interesting because it is based off of a real event, but the story itself did not happen. I think this is interesting, and I also liked that the story kept the readers on their toes and was exciting throughout. The big idea in this book is to portray some of the events that took place during the Great Chicago Fire. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
