I do love an excellent collection of haiku and this space themed picture book is stellar (pun intended).

OUT OF THIS WORLD is a “star studded” collection of haiku written by Sally M. Walker with plenty of STEM related facts.  And the illustrations by Matthew Trueman are incredible.  They are a mixed media so I’m not entirely sure how they are done, but this is a book to savor as each new page revealed more and more wonders.

I tried to pick just one that could capture both the wonderful poetry and the beautiful art work.  However, I think in the end I went with one of my favorite constellations.  I always orient myself by Orion’s belt in the night sky first.  This is a book you might just need to peruse yourself.

And if you’re looking for more poetry fun this month, be sure to check out the Kidlitosphere Event Roundup!  Thank you for stopping by!
