My book is called Escaping the Giant Wave by Peg Kehret. This is a realistic fiction book. My summary is: Kyle has to babysit his sister, Beebee, while their parents are on a dinner cruise for an awards ceremony. While their parents are gone, an earthquake hits! Will Kyle and Beebee survive, what will they do to survive? The kids realize that after an earthquake comes the possibility of a tsunami (giant wave). My favorite quote from this book is, "I don't plan on being burned alive in a forest fire and I'm not scared of getting washed away by a wave". I like this quote because it makes him sound brave, even though he isn't. This quote is from Darren - who is a classmate and bully to Kyle. My recommendation for this book is excellent. It is not hard or easy. It has a lot of action in it, an example of the action is when they were running up the hill so the wave won't get to them.
