Don't Step on the Sky: A Handful of Haiku

Poetic gems for the very young.

"After the rain

a puddle.

Careful.

Don't step on the sky."

This whimsical collection of poems in the haiku tradition celebrates the joy and wonder of nature. The twenty-eight playful poems take the young reader from early morning, through the day, and into the night's "gallery of diamonds." Sometimes serious, sometimes funny, but always surprising, these poems are sure to capture the imagination.
