This past year, many kids in New York and New Jersey met Hurricane Sandy, who brought dark houses, destruction and big trouble to many people. In this session, we will talk about what you can do and who you can turn to when it feels like you’ve lost everything because a storm or because of other bad things that can happen. We’ll hear from 9-year-old Gertie, the feisty Jewish heroine of my book, When the Hurricane Came, and find out some secrets she discovered about how to cope after Hurricane Katrina came to New Orleans.
