More
Eleven-year-old John Hale has already survived one Dakota winter, but now he’s about to experience one of the most brutal blizzards in American history. The storm of 1888 was a monster, a frozen hurricane that slammed into America’s Midwest without warning. Within hours, the prairie would be buried under ten feet of snow. Hundreds would be dead, thousands terrified and lost and freezing.John never wanted to move to the wide-open prairie. He’s a city kid, not a tough pioneer! So his inner strength is seriously tested when he finds himself trapped in the blinding snow, the wind like a giant crushing hammer, pounding him over and over again. Can he survive?
