Created by Real Hurricane Kids! Whenever a hurricane threatens a community, the parents and grandparents get very busy with hurricane preparations. Kids are often fearful and have their own hurricane preparations to make. That's where this book can help. Created by hurricane kids for hurricane kids, "When the Hurricane Blew" offers a heartwarming story to help kids understand what is happening around them. It offers tips from kids who have been there and it offers a collection of games kids can do while in the car evacuating, while without electrical power, or while displaced after the storm. It is a great way to help kids understand what to expect and how to deal with the fear and uncertainty caused by an approaching hurricane and its aftermath. This book was written by a team of 4th grade kids (affectionately known as "Mann's Miracles") who have personally experienced direct hits from two major hurricanes within a single year and the resulting devastation to their Gulf Breeze, Florida community. These kids know first hand what its like to be a kid, watch a hurricane approach, and then experience the community-wide tragedy they cause. The experience moved them to create this book. It's sure to help kids understand what to expect as a storm approaches and... in the event of a direct hit... find comfort in knowning that their lives and hearts will heal. Mann's Miracles are the founders of the Hurricane Kids Network (www.HurricaneKidsNetwork.org) - a non-profit corporation which uses the royalties from this book to help hurricane affected kids everywhere through charitable donations and community projects.

This book might be for hurricane kids but it will touch the hearts of all. With this book everyone wins. You get a wonderful read and 30% of the proceeds go towards kids affected by hurricanes. I enjoyed my copy and I'm an adult. I passed it on to some younger members of my family and they loved it.
