He's being hunted by Fisheye Bill Tyler, and a nastier man never walked the streets of London. And he's got a secret that costs him four precious shillings a week to keep safe. But even for Eel, things aren't so bad until that fateful August day in 1854-the day the deadly cholera epidemic (\"blue death\") comes to Broad Street. Everyone believes that cholera is spread through poisonous air. But one man, Dr. John Snow, has a different theory. As the epidemic surges, it's up to Eel and his best friend, Florrie, to gather evidence to prove Dr. Snow's theory-before the entire neighborhood is wiped out. \"Hopkinson illuminates a pivotal chapter in the history of public health. . . . Accessible . . . and entertaining.\" -School Library Journal, Starred \"For [readers] who love suspense, drama, and mystery.\" -TIME for Kids","brand":"Random House Children's Books","offers":[{"title":"Used - good","offer_id":53535042502998,"sku":"9780375843082-G","price":1.7,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/deborah-hopkinson-the-great-trouble-9780375843082","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
