Dorie Archer's carefree childhood days became filled with
darkness-no fresh air, no sunshine, no rain, no work for the
farmers, and no money. Dorie's gripping story brings to life the
everyday activities of a Nebraska girl and her family during the
Dust Bowl as they struggled to survive the enormous challenges of
one of the most trying times in Nebraska history. Excerpt: The wind
began to swirl around them and pick up in intensity. The cloud cast
a veil over them as thick as pea soup. Soon the sun was completely
blotted out by its murkiness. The light had turned into total
darkness that Sunday afternoon. Imprisoned within the swirling,
blinding wind, the children could feel particles of dust blast
their faces sharply as they frantically covered their mouths and
eyes with their arms and hands. It was no use. The dust filled
their mouths with grit and stung their eyes. It coated their teeth
and tongue and caused them to cough, sputter, and struggle for air.
