Books for children

Haikus and wonder in the natural world.

All Creation Whispers invites children into the quiet beauty of nature through the simple structure of haiku. With gentle, abstract artwork and lyrical poems, this book helps young readers slow down, observe, and listen to the world around them. Waves, trees, stars, rain, butterflies, and more…. rooted in the Japanese tradition of short-form poetry, haiku encourages children to notice small details, engage their senses, and express what they feel with just a few carefully chosen words. This book not only offers original haiku to enjoy, but also guides children in creating their own, making poetry a playful, accessible way to connect with creation and their inner voice.

Perfect for quiet moments, classrooms, nature walks, or bedtime reflections, All Creation Whispers nurtures a lifelong love of language, art, and the sacred rhythm of the natural world.
