Haiku Art: A Poetry Drawing Book for Kids

FOR TWENTY YEARS, Robert Henry Poulin’s poetry has electrified readers with its power, imagery and emotion. Now comes Poulin’s first collection of haiku for kids, presented as a drawing book to help your children learn haiku through the dual channels of verbal comprehension and visual interpretation. Presented with each poem on its own 8.5” x 11” page, Haiku Art will enhance the connection between what something states and what it represents by providing a broad canvas for your child’s vision. All 31 poems in Haiku Art contain bold yet familiar images as a starting point for your child. Where their imagination goes from there in interpreting the poem is unlimited. Haiku Art is designed for children ages 4 to 12. It can be used in the classroom, or at home. Either way, Haiku Art is a must-have book for those children who enjoy exploring art through words and pictures.
