By Tyrcal
Format:Paperback
Hurricane is the visual representation of a child's imaginative play around a fallen tree, all the things the children imagine are brought to life in the book which is perfect for parents to look at with their children. That said, I do prefer other books by the same author, my favorite being "Tuesday" which to me has much more readability and certainly engaged my son much more. In short, book good, pictures good, but in comparison to his others, well I prefer them....

Kat's Kind Review 30 Oct 2002
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
The book Hurricane by David Wiesner was an excellent book. It teaches children that you don't have to always have the new hi-tech toys to have fun. All you need is your imagination. I would recommend this book to all ages. It was about 2 brothers who are waiting for a large hurricane to arrive in their town. When the storm finally hits both of the boys get really scared. After the hurricane lets up and is over the boys notice that there is a large tree that fell down right next to their house. It wasn't their tree it was the neighbors but they decided to play on it one day because they were extremely bored. They played on the tree so much that it became their little adventure world. They would spend as much time as they could with that tree. They felt safe and protected when they would play. But one morning the boys awoke to the sound of chainsaws and axes hacking away at what sounded like... A TREE!!! Could it have been their tree???

Hurricane 8 Dec 2001
A Kid's Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Excellent book about two great boys who lived through a terrible hurricane and almost fell in love with a tree. It had a little sadness and happiness. Great illustrations! One of the best children's books I have ever read! The two boys showed a bunch of love for the tree, unfortunately, it would go in the end. Overall, an excellent book for all ages!!!!!!

Title Misleading! 14 Jan 2009
By Myra Glover - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
"Hurricane" was more than I expected. Two boys on an adventure after a big storm, and the adventure took place in the neighbor's yard. The illustrations were exceptional and the reading was simple enough for my 7 year old grandson. The memory of this book will remain with the young and old for many years. My grandsons and I have locked this away in our minds as a pleasureable experience. It indeed is a "gold medal" book!
