(3) K-3 Illustrated by Henri Sorensen. When a hurricane hits his Puerto Rican neighborhood, a boy and his family hastily pack and go to a shelter. Drawing on boyhood memories, London uses vivid language to describe the raging wind and rain, and the tension the family feels as they wait for the storm to subside. Sorensen's realistic oil paintings capture the fury and the changing light of the storm.
