History on the great hidalgo fire. ....

I am reading this for an independent reading book in language arts ... It is so good to read.

This is a great book for when you're bored and you really want to read something. It has lots of great detail, and lots of action. But there is one con, it is a very low leveled book, but if you're low leveled, or want to finish a book in a day, then you'll love this book. This is one of the greater I Survived books, this book is the total opposite of dull.
