Another great poetry anthology for children. This book is a collection of poems that were written (or composed) by Japanese children. They range from funny, to beautiful. The books pictures are general photos or prints of japanese art. It's a beautiful book, and kids really seem to like reading things that other little kids have written.

I'm usually not into poetry, but this was really nice.

Such a lovely, funny book. Japanese children write the best poetry. Lots of pretty art, too.
