I Survived the Dust Bowl, 1935

In her 25th I Survived audiobook, Lauren Tarshis tells the gripping story of an eleven-year-old boy navigating the harrowing realities of the Dust Bowl, a devastating environmental disaster that led to over 2.5 million refugees in the 1930s. As massive dust storms, known as "black blizzards," ravaged the southern plains, families faced starvation and sickness, only to encounter further challenges and prejudice in California. This tale highlights one boy's courageous efforts to save his loved ones during the infamous "Black Sunday" storm.
