Summary: The best Dear America book ever!!
Review: Survival in the Storm was the best Dear America book I have ever read. I like it so much that I've read it three times! It tells about twelve-year-old Grace Edwards, who lives on a Texas farm during the Dust Bowl. It's sad when Grace's friend Helen moves to California, and when Ruth's (Grace's seven-year-old sister) best friend dies of dust pneumonia. But there are joyful parts too, like when Sadie, a girl who was always mean to Grace and Helen, becomes friends with them when she moves to California (she wrote Grace a letter and apologized, and she was in the same migrant camp as Helen.) I recommend this book to kids and adults.

Review: Survival in the storm, by Katelan Janke, was a good book. It takes place in Dalhart,Texas in 1935 during the Dust Bowl. It shows how hard it is for all the families during that time.
I could not put this book down because I liked it. I would reccommend it to 6th and 8th graders because you learn a lot about history. This book goes targets this age group.
This book was almost as good as the Harry Potter books. I say it needs a little more adventure in it. If you want to find out more you need to read the book.

Review: This is a touching little book about a young girl growing up in the high plains of Texas in the dust bowl days. My mother grew up on a small west Texas farm at the same time and her story was very similar. This is well written and I hope the young author continues her writing.
