Description

Suki’s Kimono follows a young girl as she discovers the meaning of tradition through a single, treasured garment. As the kimono moves from one moment to the next—worn, cared for, and finally understood—Suki learns how family stories, cultural identity, and everyday choices can be woven together. With warmth and clarity, the book explores themes of belonging, respect for heritage, and the quiet power of objects that carry memory. Chieri Uegaki’s gentle, accessible storytelling invites readers to see how culture lives not only in ceremonies, but also in the bonds we build and the lessons we inherit.
