Dogku
When Mooch comes to the back steps of a house he is unsure whether he will allowed to stay. When the children leave for school Mooch gets into a little trouble. Will Mooch be welcomed into the family? This is a story form book that is written solely in haiku. This is a different kind of poetry book because it revolves around an actual story.
Rating 4 out of 5 stars. This is a book for younger children probably about second grade and younger because of the simplicity and simple wording. It is a cute story and introduces children to poetry in a small subtle way through haiku. However, the story does not exactly flow at all times because of the haikus. I liked the book, but it did not really seem like a poetry book.
