Lion of the Sky: Haiku for All Seasons
Laura Purdie Salas
This collection combines haiku with riddles to explore the changing seasons. Each short poem presents a seasonal wonder through a riddle-like image, including a roaring, sizzling “lion of the sky.” Soft pastel illustrations accompany the poems. The book’s “riddle-ku” approach invites readers to consider what natural subject each haiku describes while moving through the year’s seasonal changes. Its focus is on brief poetic observations of the natural world and the questions they create.
