Firestorm

Maggie hates the thought of moving from beautiful Superior Wisconsin to the dusty small town of Hinckley Minnesota in 1894. A few months later, she and her family are caught in the huge fire that raced across the area. Maggie, her father and grandmother race to get aboard the last train leaving town. Later, she realized that her brothers did not make it to the train on time. Now, she must return to Hinckley or risk never seeing them again. A heart-stopping adventure by Jan Neubert Schultz, this won the Minnesota Book Award in 2003, and will supplement Minnesota history units on the Hinckley fire.
