Luckily for everyone, fairies are the best problem solvers around and Spiderwort is one of the fastest thinking of them all! What if you discovered you had magical fairy powers?

Book excerpt: In An Open Book is a Mind about to Soar, Danielle Sainte-Marie offers up poetry and short stories for young adults, primarily ages 8-13. Sharing this book with your loved ones is a great way to introduce them to complex phrasing, challenging words, and metaphorical ideas. This book teaches: 1. The importance of finding your talents and interests and pursuing them. 2. Learning to see life with a renewed interest and wonder. 3. Celebrating love and acknowledging the feelings of one's first teenage 'crush.' 4. How to utilize perspective to see any situation as you wish. 5. The importance of having fun and being a bit silly at times. This is reflected in a 'nonsense' poem I included. 6. The big question of death is dealt with; the book teaches that without death there is no life, and that we are all part of one big ecosystem, and so, it is what it is and we must go on--hopefully, with a smile.
Download or read book Japanese Death Poems written by and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 1998-04-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A wonderful introduction the Japanese tradition of jisei, this volume is crammed with exquisite, spontaneous verse and pithy, often hilarious, descriptions of the eccentric and committed monastics who wrote the poems." --Tricycle: The Buddhist Review Although the consciousness of death is, in most cultures, very much a part of life, this is perhaps nowhere more true than in Japan, where the approach of death has given rise to a centuries-old tradition of writing jisei, or the "death poem." Such a poem is often written in the very last moments of the poet's life. Hundreds of Japanese death poems, many with a commentary describing the circumstances of the poet's death, have been translated into English here, the vast majority of them for the first time. Yoel Hoffmann explores the attitudes and customs surrounding death in historical and present-day Japan and gives examples of how these have been reflected in the nation's literature in general. The development of writing jisei is then examined--from the longing poems of the early nobility and the more "masculine" verses of the samurai to the satirical death poems of later centuries. Zen Buddhist ideas about death are also described as a preface to the collection of Chinese death poems by Zen monks that are also included. Finally, the last section contains three hundred twenty haiku, some of which have never been assembled before, in English translation and romanized in Japanese.
