A parent might reach for this book when a child is asking difficult questions after a major weather event or when they show an intense interest in how science and humanity intersect. It is an excellent choice for kids who are processing the 'why' behind natural disasters or for those who need to see how communities come together during a crisis. This book goes beyond basic weather facts to examine Hurricane Sandy through the eyes of those who lived it. By blending scientific data with first-hand accounts from survivors, scientists, and first responders, the book helps children bridge the gap between abstract meteorology and real-world empathy. It handles themes of resilience and bravery with care, making it appropriate for the 8 to 12 age range. Parents will find it a helpful tool for discussing disaster preparedness and the importance of teamwork in a way that feels informative rather than purely frightening.
