(4) 4-6 After her family relocates to Hinckley, Minnesota, Maggie wants to escape the dusty nineteenth-century railroad town. When the hot weather produces a massive firestorm, Maggie gets her wish but eventually learns that Hinckley has become her home. Though the firestorm of 1894 is historically interesting and re-created in detail here, Schultz spends too many chapters describing it and not enough time exploring Maggie's inner struggle.
