Reader reviewed by Jacqueline

Out of the Dust is a book about a girl who is living through the Dust Bowl which is during the Great Depression. In the beginning, she accidentally pours gasoline (thinking it is water) on a fire and causes her mom and little brother to die. She also has painful burns on herself. The story is how she survives and forgives herself and her dad. It is written in beautiful poetry.
