Could an entire city really burn to the ground? One brave boy finds
out in this graphic novel adaptation of Lauren Tarshis's
bestselling I Survived the Great Chicago Fire, 1871, with text
adapted by Georgia Ball and art by Cassie Anderson. Oscar Starling
never wanted to move to Chicago. The smog, the stench, the thieves
around every corner -- it's so different from his old life on the
farm. Will the big city ever feel like home? But shortly after
Oscar arrives, a huge fire breaks out. All of Chicago is ablaze and
one thing is clear: the city is like a powder keg, ready to
explode. An army of firemen tries to help, but this fire is a
ferocious beast that wants to devour everything in its path. Will
Oscar -- and his new city and new friends -- survive one of the
most famous and devastating fires in history? Lauren Tarshis's New
York Times bestselling I Survived series comes to vivid life in
graphic novel editions. Perfect for readers who prefer the graphic
novel format, or for existing fans of the I Survived chapter book
series, these graphic novels combine historical facts with
high-action storytelling that's sure to keep any reader turning the
pages. Includes a nonfiction section at the back with facts and
photos about the real-life event.
