There’s Flooding in My Town [EPUB ebook] 

The streets and shops are busy in a country town in Australia. But now that there is word that the weather is changing and a big thunderstorm is coming, the town’s residents hurriedly try to prepare to save their homes from the rising river.
As they stack sandbags along the levee to keep the water out, the skies turn dark and cloudy and it begins pouring rain. It is not long before the streets are flooded. While the farmers take their animals and head to higher ground, a family packs their belongings into their car and heads to a relative’s house for safety. Will they make it in time, and will the town’s residents be able to return home?
In this educational tale, the residents of an Australian country town must band together to prepare their town for a flood and escape to higher ground.
