| Meet Penny, who lives in Halifax with her dad and two little sisters, Emily and baby Maggie. Their mother died the year before, and so Penny, as the oldest, must take on a lot of household responsibilities. In fact, sometimes she feels more like a mother than a sister to Emily and Maggie. But still, having too much to do is better than being sent off to live with her grandmother in Montreal--which is what her father means to do. Then on the cold, sunny morning of December 6, 1917, any worries about the future are cast aside. Penny is late for school again and hurrying her sisters out the door when a terrible explosion turns the world upside down. Something has happened in the harbour, their home is destroyed, and it is up to Penny to find safety for herself and her sisters. | ||
