(3) 4-6 Dear America series. When lady's maid Minnie's wealthy employers are killed in the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, Minnie is mistaken for their daughter. In a book that is both a mystery and a historical adventure, Minnie must decide if she should live a lie. As Dear America volumes reliably do, this fast-paced, engaging story gives readers a picture of an important historical event.
