September 11th, 2001 dawns like any other day for Tyrell, a high school freshman in New York City. His biggest concern should be finding his way around his new school, just a block and a half from the World Trade Center. But in a matter of hours, his world-and America's-will change forever. Through Tyrell's eyes, young readers experience one of the most pivotal moments in American history with immediacy and deep personal connection. As the unthinkable unfolds around him, Tyrell's thoughts turn to his father, one of New York's brave firefighters rushing toward danger while others flee. His story becomes a lens through which readers understand not just the events of 9/11, but the human spirit that emerged from tragedy-the courage, sacrifice, and unity that defined America in the aftermath. Written with sensitivity and careful attention to historical detail, "That September Day" helps a new generation understand the impact of 9/11 through the perspective of someone their age. L.C. Rusch masterfully balances the weight of historical events with age-appropriate storytelling, creating a narrative that educates while it moves and inspires. Complete with historical references and resources for further learning, this book serves as both a compelling story and a valuable educational tool. It offers young readers a way to connect with this crucial moment in American history, fostering understanding and empathy across generations. Part of the acclaimed I'm American series, "That September Day" continues the tradition of bringing history to life through the eyes of young people who lived it, helping readers understand how extraordinary moments in history felt to ordinary Americans. About the Author >Armed with an undergraduate degree in history and a mission to make the past come alive for young readers, Rusch created the I'm American series to bridge the gap between textbook facts and compelling narrative. Her distinctive background-combining homeschool's creative exploration with formal academic training-gives her a unique ability to craft stories that both educate and entertain. After observing how traditional education often fails to connect students with their historical heritage, Rusch dedicated herself to creating historical fiction that resonates with young readers. Her careful research and sensitive approach to challenging historical topics have made her a trusted voice in middle-grade historical fiction. When not bringing history to life through her writing, Rusch maintains her connection to traditional crafts through sewing, while staying close to the family whose support made the I'm American series possible.
