I was obsessed with this book when I was in fourth grade. Our teacher read it to us and then we went to visit Johnstown and the Johnstown Flood Memorial Museum, and I was completely hooked. I read this countless times back then, but I couldn't really remember what happened, so I figured it was worth a re-read....
