A Little Girl In Old Chicago is a historical fiction novel written by Amanda M. Douglas. The story is set in the late 1800s in Chicago, a city that is rapidly growing and changing. The main character is a young girl named Bessie, who lives with her family in a small apartment in the city. Bessie is curious and adventurous, and she loves exploring the bustling streets of Chicago. As Bessie navigates the city, she encounters many different people and experiences. She meets wealthy families who live in grand mansions, as well as poor immigrants who struggle to make ends meet. She also witnesses the devastating effects of the Great Chicago Fire, which destroys much of the city.Throughout the book, Bessie learns important lessons about kindness, generosity, and the power of community. She also grapples with issues of class and inequality, as she comes to understand the vast differences between the lives of the rich and the poor in Chicago.A Little Girl In Old Chicago is a charming and engaging story that offers a vivid glimpse into life in a rapidly changing city. It is a great read for anyone interested in history, or for those who simply enjoy a good story about a plucky young heroine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
