    A touching story of resilience during a difficult time. The illustrations are beautiful, but the ending felt a bit rushed. Overall, a good read.

    Beautifully written and illustrated. A must-read for anyone interested in American history and the strength of the human spirit.

    The illustrations really brought the story to life. The story dragged at times, but overall a worthwhile read about perseverance.

  7. Aman Mittal

    While the topic is very interesting, I was hoping for a more upbeat story for kids. It’s a bit too grim for younger children.

  8. Anurag Kapoor

    A heartbreaking but important story. It really puts the struggles of the Great Depression into perspective. Highly recommend!

  9. Mukul Singh Patel

    An ok book. The story of the dust bowl is very depressing and it was not my favorite book. The drawing were really good.
