(1) 4-6 This novel, narrated by thirteen-year-old Rosie Beckett, provides an animated and vivid trip back to the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. Rosie and her two siblings haven't traveled much beyond their rural Illinois farm, so their first trip to the big city of Chicago is as eye-opening and bewildering as the breathtaking sights of the fair. Rosie's energetic and humorous narration reflects all the wonder, optimism, and possibility the fair offered.
