The Great Depression

By: Libby C
Ohio, Grade: 5

I'm really depressed. Ever since people have voted in President Hoover people have lost theit jobs everywhere. I have just lost mine today. Now no one in the family has a job. I have 7 mouths to feed! I have no idea what I'm going to do. I had an alternate plan,to send the willing kids to go to Oklahoma with their kidless aunt and uncle. I have seen in the newspaper that a wind of dust has just appeared. So that's out of the question. I will have to pray to God for Him to work things out for everybody.
