Reona Visser

Story of a Storm started as an idea during hurricane evacuation, while Reona Visser drove in bumper-to-bumper traffic away from the approaching Katrina. Mrs. Visser, a 5th grade teacher at Coast Episcopal School, felt compelled to create a book about this devastating storm. The result was thirty children, ranging from kindergarten to eighth grade, collaborating on collages that create a beautiful and moving account of that terrible day in August 2005.
