Bootman's watercolor illustrations and Uhlberg's first-person fictional account is of a ten year-old boy and his parents who are displaced by Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.
The child describes what he sees, and goes through; his observations of the things his parents, and other adults say and do affects how he feels.
This picture book is a moving and well-crafted story, intended for elementary school-aged children.
2011.
