Geisert, Arthur

Thunderstorm

(3) K-3 Saturday afternoon the clouds roll in. A farm family prepares for the storm, loading hay bales and bringing in the laundry while animals across the countryside take shelter. Geisert's expansive full-spread etchings expertly capture the destructive power of a Midwestern storm, from the first strike of lightning to the intensity of gale force wind to utter devastation to, gloriously, a community rebuilding.
