Henry and Hala Build a Haiku

While on a family camping trip Hala teaches her friend Henry how to write Haiku, an ancient form of Japanese poetry. This series can get young writers writing their own poems! Join in on the adventure as friends learn the basics of writing poetry and the use of rhyme, meter, alliteration, and other tools to write their own poems. Each book in the series covers a different type of poem. From limericks to acrostics, you can follow the story that shows the steps needed to create your new poem. Activities in the back of the book provide additional information and writing practice.
