There is an excellent book on the Galveston storm. "Isaac's Storm", by Eric Larson. I don't know how old your daughter is, but even as background information for yourself, it's very good. And, very well written.

It's from the perspective of the local meteorologist.

Thank you for the tip! I'll see if our local library has the book. I appreciate any and all suggestions to use in our schooling experience. Using 'living' books makes our studies SO much more interesting! ;o)
