=0D=0A=In 2011, Japan had its largest earthquake and subsequent tsunami triggered by the quakes. The tallest waves got up to 40 meters (130ft). It caused over 15,800 deaths and 2,500 people are still missing. The closest city to the epicenter was Sendai, Sachie’s hometown. Her mother lived in a town by the sea just south of Sendai. When Sachie first got news of the tsunami, her first thought was she had lost her mother. In fact it was three days later Sachie learned her mother was alive. Fish Saw is the story about Sachie’s mother, who is The Little Girl With Glasses, and her family and their house by the sea.
