The Cuckoo's Haiku by Michael Rosen and illustrated by Stan Fellows

This is my favorite non-fiction book in the library. The drawings are very pretty. Haiku is my favorite poetry to write. It seems very simple but it is actualy hard to do. My favorite bird in this book is the cuckoo on the cover. My husband's grandfather always told me that cuckoos sit on their nests backwards and I believed him. Now which way is really backwards? Give me a duh!!!!
