Elsie at the World's Fair, Book 20 (Elsie Dinsmore Collection) by Martha Finley
The Dinsmore caravan visits the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, where glittering inventions and exotic exhibits test the family’s ability to discern eternal value over passing novelty. Finley contrasts the fair’s temporal wonders with the abiding beauty of godly character, offering modern readers a gentle critique of entertainment culture.
