White House on fire!  Cover Image Book Book

White House on fire! / Sean O'Brien ; [illustrations, Karyn Lee].

Summary:

"When the clubhouse fills with smoke, Marissa and Clara Suarez escape through one of its doors...and find themselves in James Madison's presidency, with the White House and capital city set on fire by invading British troops! With an iconic portrait of George Washington in hand, they race through the countryside as the War of 1812 rages all around them. Over rough roads, on sailing ships, and on the ramparts of Baltimore's Fort McHenry, Marissa and Clara help save a young nation (and play a part in writing 'The Star-Spangled Banner') while confronting the contradictions that challenge what it means to be free"--Provided by publisher.
