Publisher's summary

Thirteen-year-old Kyle thought spending a vacation on the Oregon coast with his family would be great. He'd never flown before, and he'd never seen the Pacific Ocean. But Kyle's vacation becomes a nightmare when he's babysitting his sister BeeBee and an earthquake hits. Can Kyle and BeeBee outwit and outrun nature's fury to save themselves from tsunami terror?

This was a great read!

Would you listen to Escaping the Giant Wave again? Why?

I wouldn't rent this particular book again, since it was for my daughter to read for her book club. She really enjoyed the experience and loved being able to relax and lay on her couch, while listening. Great time, great book.

Great story for students

I listened to this because I assigned it to my high readers in 3rd grade. It’s a very exciting and engaging story. There are some slightly scary and sad at times. I enjoyed discussing it with my students!

An excellent ride

This was a good book. Alex (10) and Molly (7) really enjoyed the plot and made the long road trip go faster.

I love books by Peg, they're exciting and clean!!

This is a fun book of a 13 year old having an exciting summer of maturing and learning to love and appreciate his family even more. It is exciting, fun to listen to and the narrator is excellent! This book and 100% clean and very enjoyable.
