Each season opens with a haiku, following with the season's months and their poems. Readers will dance into March with a rondel for a newborn lamb, wave in the August wind with a five-line tanka for a summer sunflower, snuggle in for December with a limerick for all those who stayed home instead of going south...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExquisite woodcut art from Henriette Boerendans, an artist making her US and UK debut, showcases the wonder of the natural world. Back matter offers further details about the poems' structures--offering the perfect opportunity for young writers to write their own sonnet for February or quatrain for September.
