Black Blizzard (暴风雪) by Maurine V. Eleder

This suspenseful story follows two young girls, at home alone, when a dust storm arises.

Despite their young age, Betty and Mary Ann quickly take action when the severe duststorm hits. They begin taking measures to block the dust from coming into the house, whichwould make the air unbreathable. Although they are frightened, they take comfort fromthinking they can just wait out the storm inside their home.

Unfortunately, Betty realizes her beloved horse is caught out in the“ black blizzard”.Fancifoot could injure himself—or worse by one wrong move in the blinding storm. Bettyfaces the difficult decision of leaving her younger sister to brave the storm or riskingFancifoot‘s life to remain in safety.

Teachers could use this text to teach the history of the Dust Bowl of the 1930s or toteach the science behind the causes and effects of soil erosion.

Tornado Coming! by Dick DonleyIf your students love the nail biting tale Black Blizzard, they’ll love Tornado Coming!as well. Because this story includes a tornado, a young kid, a small dog, and a strangeneighbor, you might be reminded of another tale you‘ve read before. However, there are notalking scarecrows (稻草人) or flying monkeys in this story.

Matt is home alone with Buster when he hears the siren (警报) warning of a tornado.

Mentally ticking through the safety tips he learned in school, Matt heads for the storm cellar(防风地窖) with the tornado forming at his back. With only moments to spare, Matt realizeshe must leave his little dog in the safety of the storm cellar to run to the aid of his unpleasantneighbor, Mrs Laney. After the storm passes, Matt doesn’t wake up to find himself inAustralia. However, he does find himself in a pretty odd place.

This text weaves helpful tornado safety measures throughout a narrative story. For acreative follow up activity, teachers could assign different natural disasters to small groupsfor research. Then, groups could use their research and the model text Tornado Coming! to incorporate safety tips within their own short stories about their assigned natural disaster.
