From School Library JournalGrade 4 UpFor decades, 17syllable, 3line Japanese haiku has grown in popularity in America. Janeczko expands its traditional subjects and themes beyond nature and the seasons to encompass the city and its own wonderful scenes. As a result, 20 contributors to this welldesigned book looked carefully at city streets, people, and activities to produce enormously appealing selections. Stickball, hard hats, screeching trash trucks, swings, and car washes all are celebrated with powerful and sometimes surprising imagery. Highquality, blackandwhite photographs capture the cityscapes consisting of cranes, heaped garbage cans, and assorted scenes that reflect the themes of the haiku. For Silberman, starting with the written poems was a new challenge. "Instead of letting my surroundings guide the subjects of my photographs," he writes in a brief note, "I let the haiku guide me." The design of this small book is balanced and uncluttered, generally featuring one haiku with an accompanying photograph on each page. Students and teachers alike will be drawn to this book again and again.Lee Bock, Glenbrook Elementary School, Pulaski, WICopyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc.Product DescriptionA collection of haiku celebrates the natural beauty on everyday city streets with complimentary blackandwhite photographs that invite readers to look closely at the poetic world around them.
