yes, I know that book!

There's a book of haiku by Richard Wright that Erik got out from the library a few weeks ago. We've used it to play a game called the haiku game. This is how you play. You read all eight haiku on the two open pages. You choose your favorite ones. Then the other person reads all eight haiku on the two open pages, and they chose their favorite ones. Then you tell one another which were your favorites and see if they match. You talk about why you love the ones you love and hate the ones you hate.

We developed this game with the Richard Wright book but have played it with a different haiku book too, a cheap-ass Dover with yellowing pages and lots of interesting notes.
