I am a retired educator who has spent her professional life telling stories to children. "Riding Out the Hurricane" is a story of faith, hope and love in the face of a life changing natural disaster. It tells the real life stories of so many survivors of Hurricane Katrina from the perspective of a twelve year old girl. Jade, Grandma, Mary Lou and Jade's hurricane pet dog, Bunty, are convincing characters who show us how to draw on inner strength in order not only to survive but to be transformed. This is a Nautilus Book Award winner in 2011, Middle Grade and Teen category.

I'm looking for a major publisher to buy the book or an agent who is convinced of its merits and will search for the best deal.
