When hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf hard people knew it was coming, it was very sad many peoples homes were gone and half of the people became homeless no one had a place to live their houses flooded with water there was no severe no wifi and people had a hard time trying to figure what's going to happen next. People had to stay either on top of there roof or in their attics many people got helped and a lot of people didn't. Many died because they drown in the water. A lot of people who had boats saved people and risk their lives for them. Half of the people left and half of them didn't. Read this book for more information. This reminds me of a time where there was a big storm and we had to go to the basement it was so scary I didn't know what to do it was coming closer to where we lived tornado sirens were going off the winds super strong and the sky dark gray my parents said everything was going to be okay. ten minutes later the weather reporter told us it had move somewhere else I was super happy. I give this book a 5 I never knew so many things about this storm if I lived there I would be super scared I really enjoy things like this.

Hurricane Katrina was a devastating hurricane that hit the Gulf in 2005. It hit hard, but this was predicted. People did not believe that it would actually happen or they couldn't leave, so they were in the flooding and storm. People had to climb on their roofs because their house was flooding to the top. Rescuers couldn't come far in until the winds had died down more. People were trapped where they were until a helicopter or other rescue vehicle could get to them. I may not directly relate to the hardships people faced in that time, but my sister was born in 2005. I relate to the book through m family. I rated this book five stars because it was very interesting; it was enticing enough that you would never want to put it down.
