April 1, 1946, started like any other Monday on the island of Hawaii. In the small coastal community of Laupahoehoe, however, people noticed something strange: the ocean was pulling back, back, back from the shore like water draining from a bathtub. Children arriving at school ran down to the beach to investigate the strange sight. Suddenly, someone yelled, "Big wave, big wave!" A giant roaring wall of water was headed toward land. Black-and-white photographs. Illustrations. List of related books, Web sites, and videos. Bibliography.
