Description - I Survived The Dust Bowl, 1935 (I Survived #25) by Lauren Tarshis
The Dust Bowl of the 1930s was the worst environmental disaster in American history, a time when ‘black blizzards’ of dust, some hundreds of miles wide, swept across the southern plains. Hundreds of people were killed. Thousands of farms were buried. Millions of refugees fled starvation and sickness in the plains only to face hatred and prejudice in California. In her 25th I Survived book, Lauren Tarshis brings this desperate time of poverty and fear to life through the thrilling story of an eleven-year-old boy who risks his life to save his family and friends during the worst dust storm of all, an event that would become known as ‘Black Sunday’. Includes a section of non-fiction back matter with more facts and photos about the real-life event.
