Plot Summary: This story is based on 1906 earthquake in San Francisco. Based on the memories of Lee's mother, the family is jolted in the evening by an earthquake. Immediately they pack their vital belongings and flee for safety. The rest of the book follows their escape to safety.

My Rating: B-. I had no idea this book took place in San Francisco until I read the note at the end of the book. It didn't really provide a lot of context or details. The illustrations were all right but a little bit muddy.
