Key Features

Description

Illustrated with photographs from the Dust Bowl era. This true story took place at the emergency farm-labor camp immortalized in Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath.


This book describes the plight of the migrant workers who traveled from the Dust Bowl to California during the Depression and were forced to live in a federal labor camp. Ostracized as "dumb Okies," the children of Dust Bowl migrant laborers went without school, until Superintendent Leo Hart and 50 Okie kids built their own school in a nearby field.
