Buds on a tree grow into popcorn ... a cheese danish escapes ... Pomegranate Janet visits a city ... a pirate captain changes his life ... a ghost tries to scare Maya. These happenings happen in this collection of playful poems and drawings. If you count the haiku as a group, there are 100 poems in the book. But if you count the haiku individually, there are 106 poems. Most are accompanied by a black-and-white drawing, some in lovely tones of gray. The poems will appeal to kids and adults with youthful sides that come out for recess. Are you open to learning about new words that rhyme with orange, and which lands don't belong to the king of nearly everything, and what items are collected by quirky Miss Q? If so, then start a journey on page 1, with the poem fittingly titled "Beginning." Or begin on any page with any poem. As it goes without saying (or writing): starting on page 1 is not mandatory.
