Product Description

Rachel Borland wants peace in her family. In her hometown of Minneapolis, streetcar workers have started a union--and this new labor movement has divided Rachel's family.

The ten-year-old is troubled by her relatives' bickering, but the issue becomes even more personal when Rachel is unwittingly caught up in a streetcar worker's riot. Will she escape the mob uninjured? Can she count on God to settle the differences among the people she loves?

Let the Sisters In Time take you back to 1889--where you may find that Rachel Borland isn't that much different than you! Recommended for ages 8 to 12.

This story is based on (and very similar to) The Streetcar Riots from the American Adventure Series.

Publisher's Description

Time Period: 1889 In Minneapolis in 1889, ten-year-old Rachel Borland finds her family torn apart by the new labor movement. Two of her uncles quarrel over the necessity of a streetcar workers' union-and before long, it becomes even more personal as Rachel is unwittingly caught up in a labor riot. Written especially for eight- to twelve-year-old girls, Rachel and the Riot tells the compelling story of a young girl hoping to bring peace to her divided family-while at the same time teaching important lessons of American history and the Christian faith.

Hannah age 12

This is one of my favorite Sisters in Time books! It was so interesting and fun to read! I have never heard much of the Labor movement and I sure learned a lot! And it was a great story of friendship,too! I really recommend this book and the other books in this series! I'm almost 13, and I think that all girls my age or younger would love this book!
