Book Description paperback. Condition: New. Jorisch, Stéphane (illustrator). Illustrated. ReviewA wonderful story about being yourself, with the added bonus of teaching readers a little about Japanese culture.-Kirkus ReviewsUegaki's first picture book is a joyful tribute to a little girl's inner and outer sense of style. Uegaki conveys Suki's determination to honour her grandmother and remember a favourite day with language as colourful as the all-important kimono. Suki's Kimono successfully achieves that delicate balance between plot, language, illustration, and design that is so critical when creating memorable picture books.-Quill & Quire, Starred ReviewThe title character in the appealing story is a free spirit who wavers only briefly in her dedication to her own feelings.-The New York TimesThe story, written for ages four through eight, rings true on many levels.-ForeWord MagazineA fine choice for multicultural units as well as youngsters dealing with differences. Suki's story will appeal to other independent-thinking girls as well.-BooklistAn absolutely delightful tale .-Asian WeekOverall, this is an appealing story of courage and independence.-School Library JournalJorisch's watercolours creations capture the spunk of the free-thinking Suki.-Montreal Review of BooksProduct DescriptionSuki's favorite possession is her blue cotton kimono.
