A little cat searches for the meaning of her name and finds much, much, more...
A curious cat explores the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty in simplicity. Wabi Sabi, a little cat in Kyoto, Japan, had never thought much about her name until friends visiting from another land asked her owner what it meant. At last the master says That's hard to explain. And that is all she says. This unsatisfying answer sets Wabi Sabi on a journey to uncover the meaning of her name, and on the way she discovers what wabi sabi is: a Japanese philosophy of seeing beauty in simplicity, the ordinary, and imperfection. Using spare text and haiku, Mark Reibstein weaves an extraordinary story about finding real beauty in unexpected places. Award-winning artist ** Ed Young ** complements the lyrical text with
breathtaking collages. Together, they illustrate the unique world view that is wabi sabi. Wabi Sabi is a unique picture book that shows readers a new way of seeing the world...
