As New condition; 10-year-old Cassie lives with her working-class family in 1919 Winnipeg. The Great War and Spanish Influenza have taken their toll, and workers in the city are frustrated with low wages and long hours. When they organize a General Strike, Cassie desperately wants to help. She begins volunteering for the strike committee as a papergirl, distributing the Strike Bulletin at Portage and Main, and from her corner, she sees the strike take shape. Packed with history and heart, this book is a celebration of solidarity, justice, and one brave papergirl.
