A collection of haikus that features increasing numbers for counting/math skills and lovely sparse descriptions of the wind and a Japanese garden. Good for elementary-aged children.

This one was really unusual: a counting book set in a Japanese tea garden, written entirely in haiku! Delightful poetry and illustrations; overall marvelous.
