Basho’s Haiku Journeys: Uncover Your Unique Brilliance and Create a Life That Totally Turns You on

Age range 9+ The 17th-century Japanese poet Matsuo Basho practically invented the haiku. He’s most famous for his travel journals. But how did he come to be such a traveler in the first place? This delightful volume – written entirely in haiku and illustrated with vibrant hand-painted scenes taken directly from the poet’s written travelogues – tells the true story of Basho’s decision to abandon his comfortable city life and of the five great journeys he then took through the length and breadth of Japan. —- ISBN: 9781611720693
