Book Reviews of Haiku (Asian Arts and Crafts For Creative Kids)
Book Review: Smart and iInspirational
Summary: 5 Stars
First let me say this: I NEVER write reviews. But after seeing so few written for this title, I feel compelled to offer my praise.
After a half hour of perusing this book, I have
- Learned interesting tidbits about the history of haiku
- Gained several simple but brilliant insights into the spiritual nature of haiku
- Become determined to lead a haiku class at my sons' school
- Started planning for a seasonal haiku-writing party with friends
Put it this way: If you're interested enough in this book to actually read the reviews, then you must buy it. Must buy it.
