It was an era of the Great Depression...

You'll go through this adventure through a little girl's diary pages named Annabelle Lee and a little boy's tale...

Summary of The Great Depression
The Great Depression began in the United States but quickly turned into a worldwide economic slump owing to the special and intimate relationships that had been forged between the United States and European economies after World War I. The United States had emerged from the war as the major creditor and financier of postwar Europe, whose national economies had been greatly weakened by the war itself, by war debts, and, in the case of Germany and other defeated nations, by the need to pay war reparations. So once the American economy slumped and the flow of American investment credits to Europe dried up, prosperity tended to collapse there as well. The Depression hit hardest those nations that were most deeply indebted to the United States, i.e., Germany and Great Britain. In Germany, unemployment rose sharply beginning in late 1929, and by early 1932 it had reached 6 million workers, or 25 percent of the workforce. Britain was less severely affected, but its industrial and export sectors remained seriously depressed until World War II. Many other countries had been affected by the slump by 1931.

I wrote this story ten years ago on Google Docs as an English class assignment when I was 14 years old. It was left untouched and I completely forgot about this story until I visited my old Google docs just recently. I decided to publish it here for the public to read. Enjoy!

Since Google Docs has many more unique fonts shown than on Wattpad (which doesn't display some fonts on Wattpad), I'll share the Google Doc link here. Here is the link to the very same Google Doc that I wrote for the class assignment many, many years ago: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1leX1Q41iY0UULy2xXoO0CkLsMNlZlH9Np5hfAo9gD_E/edit?usp=sharing
