Description
Celebrate Cuba's people, culture, and natural world in bilingual haikus written in Spanish and English!
Celebra la gente, cultura y mundo natural de Cuba en haikus bilingües en español e inglés.
Is it an island
or a tiny ship floating
upon the waters?
HaiCuba/HaiKuba is a celebration of Cuba through bilingual haikus written in Spanish and English. Discover the red, white, and blue tocororo bird (whose feathers resemble the flag of Cuba), the crowded guagua, a Havana neighborhood, salsa music and dancing, and guayaberas, through poetry that captures the rhythm of life in Cuba.
Co-authored by award-winning Cuban-American author Carlos Pintado and prolific bilingual author and translator Lawrence Schimel, HaiCuba/HaiKuba introduces the people, culture, and natural world of Cuba through these tropical verses and vibrant illustrations.
Includes an introduction to the art of haikus as well as back matter on the topics covered in the book.
¿Es una isla
o un barco flotando
sobre las aguas?

Co escrito por el galardonado poeta cubano-americano Carlos Pintado y el prolífico escritor y traductor bilingüe Lawrence Schimel, HaiCuba/HaiKuba presenta la gente, cultura y mundo natural de Cuba en estos versos tropicales e ilustraciones coloridas.
