The Great Chicago Fire: Rising from the Ashes by Kate Hannigan
3.0
A deadly blaze engulfs Chicago for two terrifying days! A brother, a sister, and a helpless puppy must race through the city to stay one step ahead of the devilish inferno. But can they reunite with their lost family before it’s too late?
In History Comics: The Great Chicago Fire, writer Kate Hannigan and illustrator Alex Graudins tell the true story of how a city rose up from one of the worst catastrophes in American history, and how this disaster forever changed how homes, buildings, and communities are constructed.
Thank you, Goodreads and First Second Books for a chance to read The Great Chicago Fire Rising From the Ashes!
I read this book with my son because when it came to the house, he opened it and saw the inside of the book and thought it as for him. So, we ended up reading it together. It was an ok book. When I first read the title of the book, I thought it was going to be a book based on facts of the actual events. But in a twist the author adds in some of the myths that have come along with the Chicago fire. I didn’t really know much about the event in the first place. Except what everyone else has probably be told. But my son liked the book and I enjoyed the time spent with him and it truly wasn’t a bad book. I just think its geared towards the youngsters. Happy reading everyone!!
