Suki's Kimono

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Stephane Jorisch & Stephane Jorisch. Strong-willed first-grader Suki decides to wear to school the kimono her grandmother gave her. Ignoring some classmates' laughter, she bravely demonstrates a Japanese dance and is rewarded with sincere applause. Suki's warm relationship with her grandmother comes through in the elegant, lively watercolors that extend the text, which is as light on its toes as Suki.
