Synopsis:
The best-selling illustrator of Harvey Potters Balloon Farm teams up with Catherine Cowan in this buoyant fantasy of a boy who brings home a wave based on the story by Nobel laureate Octavio Paz. Stunning oil paintings shimmer with light and laughter in this unexpected, unforgettable tour de force.
Review:
"Paz and Cowan's text is spare, tight, and lyrical, as the boy muses over the wave's great power with a passion that is still childlike. Buehner's illustrations lighten the tone and provide amusing details..."
Anne Lundin, Five Owls, September/October 1997
Review:"It's not easy to visually personify a wave, but Buehner pulls it off. His solidly realistic style moves gently to the surrealistic in deep-sea colored oil and acrylic paintings, full of movement, power, wonder and love."
Susan Faust, San Francisco Chronicle Book Review, 02/22/1998
