Overview

In September 2017, Hurricanes Irma and Maria struck the Virgin Islands. Irma, the first to arrive on September 6, brought great destruction to many parts of St. Thomas and St. John, but the people of St. Croix received little or no damage. As a result, many of them sent items to St. Thomas and St. John to assist the people who were affected by the hurricane. However, just two weeks after Hurricane Irma, Hurricane Maria made landfall on St. Croix and destroyed some areas on that island. After the storms, life was tough. A lot of houses and businesses were damaged, so a large number of people were displaced. There was no electricity. There was no running water, and it was very difficult to make phone calls. But many federal agencies and other organizations came to assist the people of the United States Virgin Islands.In this book, forty-two people share their real-life experiences that resulted from Hurricane Irma or Hurricane Maria.
