Boy-centric haiku about outdoor fun throughout the seasons, with
illustrations by the New York Times bestselling creator Peter
Reynolds.
The wind and I play
tug-of-war with my new kite.
The wind is winning.
When you're a guy, nature is one big playground--no matter what the
season. There are puddles to splash through in the spring, pine trees to
climb in the summer, maple seeds to catch in the fall, and icicles to
sword fight with in the winter.
Nature also has a way of making a guy appreciate important stuff--like
how many rocks it takes to dam up a stream, or how much snow equals a
day off from school.
So what kind of poetry best captures these special moments, at a length
that lets guys get right back to tree climbing and kite flying? Why,
guyku, of course!
