NATURAL SHOCKS
Angela is hiding in her basement, as a tornado is fast approaching. As the storm increases in intensity, she begins to reflect on her life and what has led her to this point.

A SHAYNA MODEL

THE HUNDRED DRESSES
The time is September 1938, and tumultuous social and economic forces, at work across the globe and in the United States during the Great Depression, are being felt in a public school classroom in a rural Connecticut town. Ten-year-old Wanda Petronski is trying to fit in among the other students in Miss Mason’s class, but that isn’t easy. For starters, she’s shy, and a slow reader. Her family’s poor, and they live in a shack on the outskirts of town. But the added stigma Wanda faces as a member of a Polish immigrant family comes to a head when she claims she has one-hundred beautiful dresses—though she’s only ever been seen in one.
