The Great Chicago Fire: Rising from the Ashes by Kate Hannigan
4.0
This was a very factual, yet pleasing, graphic novel for children. Thanks again to NetGalley and First Second for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for feedback.
This is a middle grade graphic novel that allowed me to learn more about the Great Chicago Fire without feeling overwhelmed with all of the facts. It not only talked about the fire, but also provided information about how it possibly started to what was done after the fire diminished. It didn’t break the people that lived there during that time; it helped them rebuild the city to what it is now (and providing ways to make construction of buildings better than it was). I loved the illustrations and can’t wait to read more History Comics!
