Synopsis

A beautifully put together book of Haiku poems celebrating life in everyday Britain. There is a poem for every week of the year, each with a hand drawn illustration. Haiku poems originate in Japan and are typically three lines long, with five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second line, and five syllables in the third line. The Haiku poems in the book follow that format strictly, and deal with Britain's many idiosyncrasies with charm and humour, as the year turns slowly through 52 weeks from January through to December. Dogs on beaches, teenagers in cinemas, students in exam halls, parents in soft play areas, Easter eggs, Christmas trees, vegan sausage rolls.....

It may best be summed up by the following to be found on the back cover of the book (in Haiku format):

Born in Japan but
Adopted for Britain, and
Joyfully written

With drawings there too!
Fifty-two thoughtful Haiku
For a loved country

All sorts of antics
North Sea to Atlantic are
Found in these pages

Waiting for ages
To see a better Britain?
Good reader, enjoy...
