The story of a boy, a dog, and the storm of the century
is brought vividly to life in this graphic novel adaptation of

Survived Hurricane Katrina, 2005, with text adapted by Georgia

Barry’s family tries to evacuate before Hurricane Katrina hits
their home in New Orleans. But when his little sister gets terribly

At first, Katrina doesn’t seem to be as bad as predicted. But
overnight the levees break, and Barry’s world is literally torn apart.

he survive the storm of the century alone?
