This is an ATC. A stack of HUGE books on a hillside. a strange white bird singing a cryptic haiku that matches the titles of the books. No wonder the little girl is puzzled by the whole thing. (and these books are from a best-seller list that won't be published until next week!)
This was fun to do - trying to find titles that would make a Haiku that made at least SOME sense. And then I tried to make the spines come close to matching the book covers, especially the colors, but also the fonts. The only book I actually had a picture of the spine was Obama's and that posed a problem. I tried to match the design as close as possible, but the actual spine reads "Becoming - Michelle Obama" and that didn't "work" for the poem I was doing, so I had to change the size of the font on her name. Then I had a bit of trouble finding the publishers' logos on a couple of the books. Oh, well, my obsession!

Oh, wow!!! Your Haiku does make sense in a weird way. I LOVE that you were able to use real book titles and then you made them look similar to the actual books - AMAZING!!
