The horror of Hurricane Katrina is brought vividly to life in this fictional account of a boy, a dog, and the storm of the century.
Barry's family tries to evacuate before Hurricane Katrina hits their home in New Orleans. But when Barry's little sister gets terribly sick, they're forced to stay home and wait out the storm.
At first, Katrina doesn't seem to be as bad as predicted. But overnight the levees break, and Barry's world is literally torn apart. He's swept away by the floodwaters, away from his family. Can he survive the storm of the century -- alone?

grat book
cool
great book
It was really good.
I loved this book I could not put it down!
Awesome!! But so sad :[
I love this series! I am always excited when a new one comes out. This book focuses on the awful Hurricane Katrina. I was very young when this happened. this book is intense, just like many other book from the I survived series.
Just like other i survived books, the event was real but the character was from Lauren's imagination. I don't necessarily love history yet I love the series weird how that works, isn't it?
