Wordless but far from mute, this book will engulf and fascinate readers young and old. Alvaro Villa portrays the devastation of a flood in a series of brilliant paintings. No words are necessary as he shows a young family in a pretty clapboard house not far from an estuary. Bad weather is brewing and great clouds boil toward the house as, inside, the family watches a TV weatherman warning of trouble ahead. Friends come with sandbags but to no avail, the family has to flee.
