5.0 out of 5 stars
A Beautiful, Touching book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Stone Bench In An Empty Park (Hardcover)
"Ice-cream wrappers bloomIn overflowing baskets Summer in the Park" Jane Yolen This is a "haiku" from the book. Each poem is matched with a memorable picture of the city. The pictures are of everyday scenes and the haiku are easy to read, yet the effect is haunting. Although the book is only 40 pages long, a person could spend hours reading and looking at the pictures. Children and parents and teachers will read this book over and over.

Lovely,
This review is from: Stone Bench In An Empty Park (Hardcover)
I just read this book to three of my children, ages 7, 5, and 3, and we all loved it. The children were riveted by the pictures and we had lots of fun discussing things like in what ways giraffes are like cranes. My children loved the pictures--especially the butterfly on the bike. It was a charming, memorable read and we'll enjoy revisiting this book often.
