A charming collection of haiku centered around the seasons, accompanied by gorgeous artwork. The author calls these 'riddle-kus‘. At the end there's a section detailing how to write riddle-ku, and some suggested reading books. I read this with my cubs,cand we all enjoyed it. I've written haiku before, but it's been awhile and these poems inspired me to write poetry again. And my cubs to try for themselves! Recommended for those who love poetry.
