Are You an Echo?: The Lost Poetry of Misuzu Kaneko

In early-1900s Japan, Misuzu Kaneko grows from precocious bookworm to instantly-beloved childrenâ‚¬s poet. But her life ends prematurely, and Misuzuâ‚¬s work is forgotten. Decades later her poems are rediscovered-just in time to touch a new generation devastated by the tsunami of 2011. This picture book features Misuzuâ‚¬s life story plus a trove of her poetry in English and the original Japanese.
Big Catch:
At sunrise, glorious sunrise
itâ‚¬s a big catch!
A big catch of sardines!
On the beach, itâ‚¬s like a festival
but in the sea, they will hold funerals
for the tens of thousands dead.
