Hachoo or Haiku :: Either way a lesson Learned.

Wisdom of ancient Zen teachings in a children's story. Mr. Muth takes us on a wonderful summer vacation with Koo and his new friends.

I don't think we will look at a empty cup the same way. (Well, I won't my - 3 yr old might maybe a few more years)

Pick up this wonderfully illustrated book. A perfect for the child beginning to get anxious and worried about school events. A nice lesson about learning to grow and overcome fears. 

Let us know if you have a special Haiku (is a very short form of Japanese poetry)

I tired :: our turning pages Haiku
