Back cover: In its best form, the haiku evokes a series of images or a narrative much broader in scope than would seem possible in just seventeen syllables. In Five-Seven-Five, poet Nancy Darby Myers presents forty haiku of this best form. Beautifully and creatively illustrated by Samantha “Scout” Betz, each page will set into motion a different, small story for the reader to enjoy. Whether it’s a camping adventure to Australia, watching the sparrows hop out of the way of a running squirrel, or remembering a first love, the reader’s eyes will open wider to the richness of nature and our own lives.
