I Survived: The Great Chicago Fire, 1871
This very popular series by Lauren Tarshis continues to expand and students keep rushing to read these historical fiction novels (FIC TAR). This is the eleventh in the series and deals with the Great Chicago Fire. It is a great, page-turning action story that I could not put down. These are perfect for older students who think they don't like to read. They are not too long, very exciting, and are written at a 4th grade reading level. I loved the pages at the end in which the author talks about the historical event that inspired the book.
