Notes

Japanese tsunami, 2011
Summary: Visiting his dad's hometown in Japan four months after his father's death would be hard enough for Ben, but one morning the pain turns to fear: first, a massive earthquake rocks the quiet coastal village, nearly toppling his uncle's house. Then the ocean waters rise and Ben and his family are swept away and pulled apart by a terrible tsunami. Now Ben is alone, stranded in a strange country a million miles from home. Can he fight hard enough to survive one of the most epic disasters of all time? (From book cover)
I survived.
