"Hurricane Katrina was one of the most devastating hurricanes in US history, leaving a wake of destruction across the Gulf Coast. As the catastrophic hurricane hit, eight dolphins who had stayed behind at the Marine Life Oceanarium in Gulfport, Mississippi, were swept out to sea in the rising storm surge. After days of surviving on their own in the Gulf of Mexico, the dolphins had miraculously stayed together and were found by search teams. Working with marine mammal experts and veterinarians, trainers from the Oceanarium were able to rescue the eight dolphins, known as the Katrina Dolphins, from the Gulf, but where would they go? The Oceanarium had been completely destroyed and would not be rebuilt. But then a perfect solution arose. Atlantis, Paradise Island, a resort in The Bahamas, would provide the dolphins a new home. This is the true story of the Katrina Dolphins, their amazing rescue, and their journey to The Bahamas where they would find a new home-a home in paradise"--

On August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina slammed the Gulf Coast with heavy rain and winds that whipped at speeds of up to 140 miles per hour (225 kph). Thousands of people had already evacuated the city, but many were not able to take their pets. Instead, they left extra food and water for the animals—thinking they would be back in just a few days. Unfortunately, that was not the case. As young readers relive the dramatic events surrounding the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, they will witness firsthand the dramatic and courageous rescue attempts that saved the lives of thousands of innocent animals that were trapped in the Gulf Coast region after Katrina. From rescue workers floating in boats down the flooded streets of New Orleans looking for stranded pets to marine biologists searching for dolphins that were washed out to sea, the inspiring, heart-warming tales in this book are a must for any young animal lover.
