Bestselling author Lauren Tarshis tackles the Children's Blizzard of
1888 in this latest installment of the groundbreaking, New York Times
bestselling I Survived series.
Eleven-year-old John Hale has already survived one brutal Dakota winter,
and now he's about to experience one of the deadliest blizzards in
American history. The storm of 1888 was a monster, a frozen hurricane
that slammed into America's midwest without warning. Within hours,
America's prairie would be buried under ten feet of snow. Hundreds would
be dead, thousands terrified and lost and freezing. John never wanted to
move to the wide-open prairie. He's a city kid, not a tough pioneer! But
his inner strength is seriously tested when he finds himself trapped in
the blinding snow, the wind like a giant crushing hammer, pounding him
over and over again. Will John ever find his way home?
