Requests:  0 Summary:  The morning of January 12, 1888, was unusually mild, following a long cold spell, warm enough for the homesteaders of the Dakota territory to venture out again, and for their children to return to school without their heavy coats. At the hour when most prairie schools were letting out for the day, a terrifying, fast-moving blizzard struck without warning. Schoolteachers as young as sixteen were suddenly faced with life and death decisions: keep the children inside, to risk freezing to death when fuel ran out, or send them home, praying they wouldn't get lost in the storm. Based on actual oral histories of survivors, the novel follows the stories of Raina and Gerda Olsen, two sisters, both schoolteachers-- one who becomes a hero of the storm, and one who finds herself ostracized in the aftermath. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hana P/S Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahala P/S Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Missing Inventory Add Copy to MyList Waianae Public Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Fiction Benjamin Checked In Add Copy to MyList
