SOLVED: a girl is in a twister survives by being in bathtub (?) I think it may be an elementary or middle school book [s]

[Sophia Rasmusson]

I read this in 2008 when I was in 4th grade. It was a teacher's book so they were grade level I believe. Hope that helps!

Isabella's Above-Ground Pool?

Are you sure it was a girl? There are a lot more tornado books about boys.

[Sophia Rasmusson]

Im quite sure it was a girl. I mean I'm open to hear all of the ones with with boys of course but I think a girl was the main character.

[Rainbowheart]

Cool, thanks. Do you think it might have been the book I linked above? There's a part where Isabella's friend and his family describe riding out the storm in a bathtub.

If not, do you remember if it was set in the modern day, or in olden times? I did find some tornado books about girls set in the 19th century.

[Sophia Rasmusson]

Sorry I didn't see that. It's definitely not that young. It was a very serious book and I think it was in modern times. I'd like to look at the other ones though I could be remembering it wring

Is there a chance it's Night of the Twisters by Ivy Ruckman?

Summer Storm? Can't find a ton of details, but it is about a girl.

Do you remember if the entire book was about the tornado, or if it was just one chapter in a longer novel?

[Sophia Rasmusson]

I don't think that's it either. The whole book was about the tornado definitely

[Rainbowheart]

Haven't found anything else so far, but I'll keep an eye out.

[Sophia Rasmusson]

Thanks dear, I appreciate the help :)

A few guesses:
-Content-Based Chapter Books Fiction (Science: Eyewitness): The Tri-State Tornado by Rebecca L. Johnson?
- Summer Storm by June Lewis Shore?

Oh cool, glad this one is solved. I thought of Night of the Twisters right away too, but figured not since you were sure the MC was a girl, lol.

[Sophia Rasmusson]

I thought that was weird too! Sorry about that I read it a looooong time ago so I probably switched it somehow in my head. Thanks for the help!

[Amanda]

You're welcome! My teacher read us this book about 22 years ago in the 3rd grade, but it's one of those ones that's stuck with me!

[Sophia Rasmusson]

I read it from my teacher's library in 4th and it stuck with me too! It's funny which do and which don't.

[Rainbowheart]

Night of the Twisters for the trackable link.

I'm glad that you found it! I remember reading this for school and I really enjoyed it :)
