★ "This whimsical book is an incredible collection of haiku poetry connecting nature throughout the seasons in a celebration of life and nature. From traveling through the snow, to feeling the sand on a beach in the summer, this delightful book evokes every sense of every turn of the passing year. While the entire book flows as a cohesive exploration of the sounds, sights, and feelings of the seasons, each haiku could also stand on its own as a beautiful testament to how fast the time flows and the year changes. The artwork complements the poetry beautifully and captures the childlike wonder that is part of exploring the world and soaking it up. The back matter further explains what haiku is while also encouraging readers to create their own. VERDICT A must-purchase for elementary poetry collections for its beautiful combination or art and haikus that celebrate experiencing nature as a child."–Starred Review
