Out of desperation, they travel West with their children, Patty and Earl, in hopes of finding new prosperity. Through letters and diary entries written by the Buckler children, readers witness the disaster of the Dust Bowl and the countless days spent wishing for an end to the drought - and their hunger. As they travel across the country, young Earl searches for work so he can help provide for the family. using the children's first-person accounts as well as period illustrations and photographs, the book accurately depicts the devastating effects of the Dust Bowl in the 1930s and '40s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kate Connell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0792269039\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780792269038\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National Geographic Kids\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.44w x 0.11d","brand":"Kate Connell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981217595647,"sku":"9780792269038","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e76d7e8e-c8a2-4faa-98ef-2bf4e25a1182.jpg?v=1683254302","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hoping-for-rain-kate-connell-9780792269038","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
