The repercussions of that single event are still evident today. From the meltdown of reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant to the debris floating in the North Pacific, we continue to bear witness to the damage nature delivers without warning. The human cost is still being debated, but the numbers are staggering. In this historical fiction, the narrator weaves a tapestry of images that are both realistic and unimaginable. We experience the wrath of a natural disaster through the eyes of youth. It is a story of profound loss and hope. It is poetic yet tragic. It is thought provoking and touches something deep within its listeners that remains long after the book has ended. Members Reviews: The Day the Sun Fell This was a great book.
