1932 Cuba hurricane

So, a long time ago in 1932, there was a really big storm called a hurricane that happened in Cuba. This hurricane was so strong that it caused a lot of damage and made a lot of people very scared and sad.

Do you know what a hurricane is? Think of it like a really big wind and rain storm that happens in the ocean. And when it gets close to land, it can cause a lot of damage because the wind is very strong and the rain can make floods.

This hurricane in 1932 was so strong that it made many houses and buildings break and fall down, and many trees and plants were destroyed. People lost their homes and some even lost their lives. There were also many people who were hurt and needed help from doctors.

After the hurricane, many people from all over the world helped Cuba by sending food, medicine and other things they needed to recover. Eventually, Cuba was able to rebuild and become strong again.

It's important to remember that hurricanes can be very dangerous and it's always good to listen to the advice of grown-ups and keep ourselves safe.
