I Survived the Great Molasses Flood, 1919

It's been four years since Carmen and her father moved from Italy to Boston's crowded North End neighborhood, living in the shadow of a massive steel tank filled with sticky molasses. Life in America is exciting but hard, and no one imagines the leaking tank could ever explode. When it bursts, sending a wave of molasses crashing through the streets, Carmen must fight for her life and for the future she and her father have built. Based on a real 1919 disaster, this gripping story from the bestselling I Survived series blends history, adventure, and courage.
