Product Description
When Billie Jo is just fourteen she must endure heartwrenching ordeals that no child should have to face. The quiet strength she displays while dealing with unspeakable loss is as surprising as it is inspiring. This award winning story is set in the heart of the Great Depression. It chronicles Oklahoma's staggering dust storms, and the environmental and emotional turmoil they leave in their path. An unforgettable tribute to hope and inner strength.
*review from Amazon.com*
Another great book, and a plesing approach to poetry. I am an English Major, but can I be honest and say that poetry and I just don't get along! And I have a feeling that I am not the only one out there. So as a lover/hater of poetry I might Have a connection with my students. This book will be a good way to bridge the gap between students (or yourself) and poetry. Just be prepared, the storyline in this one isn't for the weak!
