Pippy the Piano and the Very Big Wave
Author: Roger Lowther
This story, written by Tokyo missionary Roger Lowther, follows a church community in Kamaishi, Japan and its piano, Pippy, after the 2011 earthquake. Pippy is unable to play music after being damaged. But rather than throw him out, the church decides to spend the enormous amounts of time and money necessary to fix it. What follows is a story of restoration and hope as the community works together to put Pippy back together.
