I survived the dust bowl, 1935 [electronic resource]. Lauren Tarshis.
The conditions of the Dust Bowl created over 2.5 million refugees who fled massive dust storms and barren landscapes. Lauren Tarshis's story of one boy's journey to escape this disaster will leave you breathless. 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 audiobook, 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."
