I Survived the Great Chicago Fire, 1871 (The Graphic Novel)
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?
