Suki’s Kimono
Written by Chieri Uegaki. Illustrated by Stephane Jorisch.
Suki’s favorite possession is her blue cotton kimono. A gift from her obachan, it holds special memories of her grandmother’s visit last summer. And Suki is going to wear it on her first day back to school—no matter what anyone says.
When it’s Suki’s turn to share with her classmates what she did during the summer, she tells them about the street festival she attended with her obachan and the ondo dancing that they took part in. In fact, she gets so carried away reminiscing that she’s soon humming the music and dancing away, much to the delight of her entire class!
Ages 4-8. Hardbound: 32 pp.
Suki’s Kimono is available at the Museum store:Museum Store.
