This book is a joy for anyone interested in learning about haiku, Japanese gardening, cats, Taoism, or wabi sabi itself. The collage illustrations, laid out in calendar style (spun 90 degrees from a typical book), seem to pop off the page. (Miller Library Staff)
Wabi Sabi, a cat living in the city of Kyoto, learns about the Japanese concept of beauty through simplicity as she asks various animals she meets about the meaning of her name.
Recommended for preschool (age 0-5) and up and for parents and teachers.
Text mainly in English with some Japanese characters.
