Hi, Koo!
Join the author and his charming panda bear, Koo, as they invite young readers to explore the world through twenty-six haikus. These poems celebrate the beauty of the four seasons, encouraging children to expand their minds and imaginations.
Jon J. Muth's distinctive watercolor illustrations are integral to the experience, often conveying as much meaning as the haikus themselves. The book also subtly introduces children to the concept of different perspectives through the panda's observations.
Koo, the panda character, is a recurring figure in Muth's body of work, notably appearing in the Zen Shorts series. This book offers a different format and focus, emphasizing poetry and seasonal observation.
