Step into the freedom of nature with this collection of nineteen haiku written by J. Patrick Lewis and the vibrant woodcuts by Christopher Manson accompanying each poem. Escape the pages of this book into the magic of the outdoors through the haiku and woodcut illustrations that fill the pages of Black Swan/White Crow. With themes of nature and the outdoors in each poem, young readers will feel as if they are watching bison during winter storms, crows resting on a phone wire, and grizzly bears fishing in a stream with their own eyes.
