5.0 out of 5 stars This is a powerful story about a volcano and the sea., 6 Sep 1998

By A Customer

Kino lives on a farm on the side of a mountain in Japan. His best friend Jiya lives in the fishing village on the foot of the mountain. Everyone in the village fears the Big Wave. When the Big Wave comes Kino and Jiya's lives are changed forever, but their friendship will never end. I liked this book, it was interesting to read about how a volcano and the sea combined can be so powerful.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Book for all ages, 27 May 1999

By A Customer

The Big Wave is a pretty good book. I like the volcanoes and the huge wave. It would be even better if it was a little bigger book.
