One hundred years ago, a killer wave of molasses struck a crowded Boston neighborhood. Discover the story of this strange disaster in the next book in the New York Times bestselling I Survived series.

Hace cuatro anos que Carmen y su papa migraron de Italia a Boston. La vida en esta ciudad es emocionante, pero dura. Ambos viven en un barrio superpoblado llamado North End, a la sombra de un enorme tanque de acero. El feo tanque esta lleno de melaza pegajosa y tiene un salidero, pero nadie se imagina que pueda explotar e inundar las calles con una ola gigantesca de melaza.En medio de la inundacion, Carmen se da cuenta de que debe luchar por su vida, la vida que ella y su papa han construido en Estados Unidos. Pero ¿tendra la fuerza necesaria para luchar?It's been four years since Carmen and Papa moved from Italy to Boston. Life here is exciting, but not always easy. And then there's the massive metal tank that rises up over their crowded North End neighborhood. The ugly tank, filled with sticky brown molasses, has always leaked. But nobody imagined that it could one day explode apart, sending a tsunami of molasses into the streets. Caught in the flood, Carmen must fight for her life - the life that she and Papa built together in America. But where will she find the strength?
