Sinopsis

Botchan is a novel written by Japanese author Natsume Sōseki in 1906. It is one of the most popular Japanese novels, read by many during their school years. The central theme of the story is morality, but the narrator serves up this theme with generous sides of humor and sarcasm.

The story is based on the author's personal experience as a teacher dispatched to Matsuyama on the island of Shikoku. Sōseki was born in Tokyo, and dwelling in Matsuyama was his first experience living elsewhere. The novel is set at a middle school identified by critics as Matsuyama's present day Ehime Prefectural Matsuyama Higashi High School.

Natsume Sōseki (9 February 1867 – 9 December 1916), born Natsume Kin'nosuke, was a Japanese novelist. He is best known, with the pen name Sōseki, for his novels Kokoro, Botchan, I Am a Cat, Kusamakura and his unfinished work Light and Darkness. He was also a scholar of British literature and writer of haiku, kanshi, and fairy tales. From 1984 until 2004, his portrait appeared on the front of the Japanese 1,000 yen note.

    Dedicated to the glaciers, streams, and wild places that sustain us all. 
    Location: Rocky Mountains, USA 
    Deep in the shimmering waters of the Coral Triangle, Flick, a curious young seahorse, and Sandy, a grumpy but loyal crab, dart through swaying coral branches, playing tag in their vibrant reef. But something is changing. The colors are fading, the water is growing still, and the reef’s once-lively hum is disappearing. 
    When they meet Glow, a regal but fading coral, she reveals a troubling truth—the reef is struggling. Warmer waters, creeping algae, and vanishing sea life are leaving it weaker than ever. 
    Determined to help, Flick and Sandy set off on a journey to uncover how the reef can be saved. Along the way, they meet incredible sea creatures—a parrotfish cleaning algae, a sea turtle tending the seagrass, and a tiny shrimp scrubbing fish scales—each playing a role in keeping the ocean alive. 
    But is it enough? Can the reef be restored? 
    With the guidance of Raya, a wise manta ray, Flick and Sandy make an unexpected discovery—one that could bring hope back to the ocean. The reef’s future isn’t lost yet… but time is running out.

    A deacon once approached Reverend William J. Barber II in his church study, asking for help with a young woman’s $50 light bill. Deacons, like this retired Black man in North Carolina, have a long tradition of serving the vulnerable. Barber agreed to help but realized the deacon couldn’t see the deeper issue: the woman worked two jobs and still struggled. This blindness to poverty isn’t a personal failure but a result of societal myths. 
    Barber, inspired by biblical prophets, believes in calling attention to the unseen poor. He has met poor people across America who share their stories, asking not for bailouts but for recognition. Nearly 40 million Americans are officially poor, but this number is misleading. The outdated Official Poverty Measure doesn’t account for today’s high cost of living. 
    Many Americans live paycheck to paycheck, with real wages lower than 50 years ago. Wealth inequality has grown, with the richest 1 percent owning more than the combined wealth of 80 percent of the population. Politicians avoid naming this crisis, and myths about poverty persist. Researchers have found that 140 million Americans are poor or low-income, including 66 million white people. Most of America’s poor are white.

Born in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Greer, Joya Mia, and Kiki are seventh graders and the best of friends. After an accident leaves Greer's little sister paralyzed, Greer is forever changed by the experience and blames herself.
