(2) 4-6 This story is based on a stranger-than-fiction episode in which the author's Boy Scout cousin survived a tsunami. Even-tempered narrator Dylan and "bad boy" Louie discover much about themselves as they help the other Scouts, but nature is the main character here. Salisbury's visual writing creates vivid scenes of water receding, giant waves advancing, and fissure edges sharp as glass.
