Run for Your Life

In commemoration of the Trenton munitions plant explosion, Thanksgiving Day, October 1918. Painfully shy ten-year-old Emily has much to worry about: the local bully, her soldier-father and a loony aunt. The days become less dreary when her handsome older cousin joins the household, at least until Emily's mother becomes ill. When the munitions plant explodes, it is up to the cousins to rescue their family and neighbours.
