The Big Wave

The infant Naoki appeared on a windy winter day - cast ashore by a big wave into the boat of Taro the fisherman.

Seven years have already passed, and Naoki still hasn't grown.

Maybe he will find the answer in the ocean: what is the matter?

And here’s what will happen: a huge silver fish will bring him the answer...

This poetic story was created by the author and illustrator under the impression of Hokusai's famous engraving "The Great Wave off Kanagawa".
