This is a story about the 1919 Winnipeg General Strike and how it effected Cassie and her family and the rest of the city.
I had never heard of this strike until I saw this book. We follow 10-year-old Cassie as the strike begins, and we get to see what role everyone takes during a strike. Especially women and girls. I found it interesting how big a role the women took, and how it never got talked about in the news.
I also thought it was great that she wrote this when her daughter was a child, and her daughter had it published after her mothers' death.
I received a copy from Net Galley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
