SIGNED BY MICHAEL KAAN on title page; As New; Based loosely on the diaries and stories of the author's father, this engrossing story of adventure and survival captures the horror of war with unsettling and unerring grace. Twelve-year-old Chung-Man transports the reader from the halcyon days of upper-class life in pre-war Hong Kong into the brutality of the Japanese occupation where cruelty has no limits. Written in clean, elegant prose, The Water Beetles is a powerful and gripping account of a young boy's coming of age during that most harrowing of times. - Judy Fong Bates
