A Tornado Destroyed My House—While I Was in It!
We’ve all been glued to the news about wild weather. But when a tornado hit Brooke, 18, it was all she could to hang on for her life.
As told to: Jane Bianchi
Just like other schools have fire drills, I’d always had regular tornado drills at my school in Town Creek, Alabama. Teachers would make us ball up into the fetal position against hallway walls and put books over our heads. That way, if the ceiling caved in, we’d be more protected. But I giggled through them all.

Now.
I knew something major was wrong. But there was no time to panic. All eight of us squeezed into our four-by-five-foot bathroom. The second we shut the door behind us, I heard what sounded like the crack of a baseball bat hitting a home run again and again. Then I heard glass shatter. Giant hail was pounding our roof and breaking our windows while Zac yelled over the noise, A tornado is headed straight for us!
I was terrified of what would happen next. Then I heard what sounded like
