Wabi Sabi

Wabi Sabi, a little cat in Kyoto, Japan, has never thought about her name, until friends visiting from another land ask what it means. The curious Wabi Sabi then sets out on an adventure to discover the true meaning of her name. Using spare text and haiku, Mark Reibstein weaves an extraordinary story about finding beauty in unexpected places. Caldecott Medal-winning artist Ed Young complements the lyrical text with breathtaking collages. Together, they illustrate the unique world view that is wabi sabi.
