Meet Imogene Tripp, a plucky girl with a passion for history. As a baby, her first words were โ€œFour score and seven years ago.โ€ In preschool, she finger-painted a map of the Oregon Trail. So itโ€™s not surprising that when the mayor wants to tear down the long-neglected Liddleville Historical Society to make room for a shoelace factory, Imogene is desperate to convince the town how important its history is. But even though she rides through the streets in her Paul Revere costume shouting, โ€œThe bulldozers are coming, the bulldozers are coming!โ€ the townspeople wonโ€™t budge. Whatโ€™s a history-loving kid to do?

Filled with quotes from historyโ€™s biggest playersโ€”not to mention mini-biosโ€”and lots of humor, this is the perfect book for budding historians.

โ€œThis girl-power story succeeds as an energeticโ€”and funnyโ€”against-all-odds tale.โ€ โ€”The Horn Book Magazine, Starred
