Omschrijving

The true story of a devastating flood that destroys six-year-old Suzie Jones's house and calls into question everything she thought she knew about home, family, and God.

It's the summer of 1972, when six-year-old Suzie Jones and her siblings are whisked away from their home in the middle of the night, never to return again. Hurricane Agnes has triggered a devastating flood that destroys the family home and business. Suzie and her family are then set on an exhausting yet exhilarating four-year journey to build back their lives.

Suzie bounces from one quirky family member to the next before she and her family settle into a government-provided trailer for the next two years. When Suzie and her family meet a community of kids and their free-thinking parents living in the other trailers, their lives are changed forever.

This tale of loss, love, and discovery, told through the eyes of a child, is at times laugh-out-loud funny and at others deeply poignant. Chock-full of 1970s nostalgia, Suzie's story is a delightful trip down memory lane for those who lived through the decade and a vibrant illustration of life in the '70s for those who did not.

From the Flood teaches us that even the most difficult life circumstances provide unexpected gifts.
