Fever 1793 (***)




This book is about a girl, Mattie Cook, who lives in 1793. There is a fever going around Philadelphia again and her mother catches it. They have to close their coffee shop down and Mattie and her Grandfather flee to her mother's old friend's farm. Her Grandfather dies, so she is on her own in the world with her cat.
Read the book to find out what else happens. (This is a great example of historical fictoin.)

This book is 243 pageslong. I'll give it three out of five stars (***).
