The Housemaid by Freida McFadden
The Bridge: How the Roeblings Connected Brooklyn to New York by Peter J. TomasiSo since Ale, Emma, and I are going to New York in October 2026 I wanted to learn all I can about New York history. I wanted to read a graphic novel about New York history and found this book. I first found this book as an eComic, but I’d really rather have a physical book instead. I saw that the Phoenix library has a physical copy in their catalog, so I borrowed it from them and picked it up at the Palo Verde outdoor holds locker. I love those things! I wish that every library had them. I think that I will enjoy this story!
* I thought that it was so sweet that Washington Roebling’s father came to help him with his stomach pains. I think that their Irish if Washington calls his father Da, but after searching online I found out that they are of German descent.
* I also thought that it was crazy how the bridge workers found the skeletons of British soldiers from the last century. Wow! Page 105.
* I got teary eyed and emotional when Em, or Mrs. Roebling first crossed the bridge. I loved what Mr. Roebling said in the bottom panels. Page 186-187.
