In New Orleans, there lived a man who saw the streets as his calling,
and he swept them clean. He danced up one avenue and down another and
everyone danced along. The old ladies whistled and whirled. The old men
hooted and hollered. The barbers, bead twirlers, and beignet bakers
bounded behind that one-man parade. But then came the rising
Mississippi--and a storm greater than anyone had seen before. In this
heartwarming book about a real garbage man, Phil Bildner and John Parra
tell the inspiring story of a humble man and the heroic difference he
made in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
