There's no mistake!
You know the scene at the end of the movie, when Jack suddenly wears newsie clothes again? And then, when he's in the carriage, they throw him a travel bag and no one knows where it came from? Totally mixed up and illogical, right? Wrong! They don't make any mistake there! Want to know exactly what happened? I figured it all out, so come on and read it here!

Learning to Receive by Spitfire
Who is this new girl? Can the newsies trust her? And can she trust them? Perhaps all she needs is a friendship? Crutchy offers it to her, but will she learn to accept it? 
You Don't Get Your Money Back by Spitfire
This is a prequel to Learning to Receive, you have to read it second to understand what's going on. And after reading Learning to Receive you'll be so hot on everything by Spitfire that there's no need for me to advertise this story. :-)

Crossi ng Paths by Spitfire
If this story doens't prove the 'Siamese Twins' were always meant for each other I don't know what does. And if you don't know what I'm talking about go and read "Learning to Receive". I promise you won't regret it.

Hold ing On by Spitfire
A story about the power of true love.

Untitled by Spitfire
Spitfire says in her synopsis (She took it down at the moment but I kept it anyway - with her permission, of course.) that there is nothing one can say about this story without giving it away. She's right. Just go and read it, I promise you won't regret it. 
Where Angels Fear To Tread by Spitfire
This story plays about a year before the strike. It's about a boy (Yes, an original movie newsie) who joins the newsies and regains something he'd lost.

Goodni ght, My Angel by Spitfire
Spitfire says this story is sappy. Well...I guess it is. But I'm always so busy trying not to cry that I never had time to consider it.

Double or Nothing by Spitfire
A very sad story, and brilliant. (The latter is a given as the story is by Spitfire. :-) ) Read why Racetrack had to leave the Bronx and how he became one of the Manhattan newsies. 
Daphne's Mini-Series by Daphne
What to say? Read it. :-) And yes, there are more detailed synopses on the series index page, so go there please. 
Never Forget by MG
When Trembles joins the newsies, she doesn't trust anyone. She doesn't talk about her past, she just tries to forget it - but then it catches up to hear. Will she learn to trust the newsies and to let them close enough to help her? 
To Cross That Line by Shadow
          An absolutely incredible story about Specs, Linnea, real love and letting go.
