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 discovers what wabi sabi is: a
Japanese philosophy of seeing beauty in simplicity, the ordinary,
and the imperfect.
Using spare text and haiku, Mark Reibstein weaves an extraordinary
story about finding real 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.
