Overview"By the Newbery-winning author of ""A Year Down Yonder""Rosie Beckett's family has received a letter -- possibly the first letter they've ever received from their aunt Euterpe in distant Chicago. It is 1893, the year of the World's Columbian Exposition -- the ""wonder of the age."" Tucked inside the pages of the letter are train tickets. Aunt Euterpe is inviting Rosie's family to the fair! Richard Peck combines the fictional Beckett family with some of the era's most fascinating real people for a whirlwind of humor, misadventure, and charms beyond measure."
