Description

The story of Erin and Katrina begins as the powerful storm, Hurricane Katrina, approaches Erin’s home far inland from the Mississippi Gulf Coast, away from the worst damage. A chapter book for young readers, this can be a story of recovery, concern, and compassion. Erin and her family respond to the disaster as many of us did by offering help and improve to those in need. The story depicts Erin’s concern for the animals in the community, and later moves her to compassion for those that had lived in the storm’s path, as she catches a glimpse of the displacement of those who lost everything. The harsh reality of the disaster is balanced by a message of hope as people eagerly are seeking to help storm sufferers. Erin and Katrina is a reflection of the compassion that was once born in the middle of the tragedy that some have known as the Hurricane of the Century. The vibrant illustrations, by two artists who know hurricanes well, add much to this well-told story.
