George Goggans moved to New Orleans in 1986. He lost his mid-city home to Katrina in 2005. George has always considered New Orleans home, and he continues to teach and write there.
I read this story to my 2nd grade class shortly after a hurricane, and they absolutely loved it! It really helped the children express their emotions. The book is filled with a message of faith that can be used for all ages.
