About
When the tsunami strikes Kenta's small village in Japan, he does all he can to hang on to the things that matter to him most. But amidst the chaos of an evacuation, Kenta and his family must quickly leave their home.
Climbing to safer ground, Kenta watches as his prized soccer ball gets swept away by the waves, never to be seen again . . . that is, until it washes up on a beach on the other side of the world, into the hands of a child who takes it upon himself to return the ball to its rightful owner.
Inspired by true events, this story by beloved author Ruth Ohi offers a reassuring message of home and human compassion.
