Haiku becomes new

Words on paper glow Photographs illumine new worlds Haiku becomes real.

A Beautiful, Touching book

"Ice-cream wrappers bloomIn overflowing basketsSummer in the Park" Jane YolenThis is a "haiku" from the book. Each poem is matched with a memorable picture of the city. The pictures are of everyday scenes and the haiku are easy to read, yet the effect is haunting. Although the book is only 40 pages long, a person could spend hours reading and looking at the pictures.Children and parents and teachers will read this book over and over.
