Read this excerpt from The Great Fire. Claire and her family continued down the street when "a short, rough man grabbed at my bundle [but I] would not let it go. I called for Father and almost lost my bundle except that another man took hold of [the man] and dragged him away. When I turned, I could not find Father or Mother or my sister or brothers. I ran down the sidewalk after them, calling their names and searching everywhere for a familiar face. They were gone ā€” into the smoke and dark and falling fire."
