Classic Literature. Juvenile Fiction. HTML:<b>The classic tale of a Japanese boy orphaned by a tsunami from the author of <i>The Good Earth</i>, the first American woman to win the Nobel Prize in Literature.</b><br /> On a mountainside in Japan, two boys enjoy a humble life governed by age-old customs. Jiya belongs to a family of fishermen; his best friend, Kino, farms rice. But when a neighboring volcano erupts and a tidal wave swallows their village—including Jiya's family—life as they know it is changed forever. The orphaned Jiya must learn to come to terms with his grief. Now facing a profoundly different life than the one he'd always taken for granted, he must decide on a new way forward. Written with graceful simplicity, <i>The Big Wave</i> won the Children's Book Award of the Child Study Association of America when it was first released. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Pearl S. Buck including rare images from the author's estate. Media Type: eBook.
