    About the Book

    Less than three weeks after Salvador Gomez-Colon turned fifteen, Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico, leaving countless families without basic resources. Unable to ignore the suffering around him, Salvador launched a fundraising campaign that delivered solar lamps and hand-powered washing machines to thousands of households. In this firsthand account, he describes living through the terrifying storm, coping with its destruction, and choosing to act. Hurricane shows young readers how courage, compassion, and hope can carry a community through catastrophe. "A harrowing and inspiring story of survival and selflessness." -- School Library Journal, starred review.
