Story Summary: The Child Study Association's Children's Book Award choice, written by the Nobel prize winning author, Pearl S. Buck. The lives of two young Japanese boys are changed forever when a tsunami crashes against their island and takes Jiya's entire family. As Jiya struggles with his loss, with the help of his friend Kino he learns that life is stronger than death, and as his heart heals he finds he is ready to live again.

Looking for more than activity sheets or a who-did-what series of questions? Want to dig into the essence of the novel? This study guide provides easy-to-use, reproducible lessons on literary terms, comprehension and analysis, critical thinking, related scriptural principles, vocabulary, and activities, plus a complete answer key. Examines issues from a Christian perspective. Excellent for private schools and home study. Also an excellent reference for public school teachers, but biblical references may have to be removed. Study guides do not contain the text of the story or book.
