Suki's Kimono
Autor Chieri Uegaki Ilustrat de Stéphane Jorischen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2005 – vârsta de la 4 până la 8 ani
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 circle dance 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!
Filled with gentle enthusiasm and a touch of whimsy, Suki's Kimono is the joyful story of a little girl whose spirit leads her to march --- and dance --- to her own drumbeat.

Uegaki'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 Review
The title character in the appealing story is a free spirit who wavers only briefly in her dedication to her own feelings.—The New York Times
The story, written for ages four through eight, rings true on many levels.—ForeWord Magazine
Overall, this is an appealing story of courage and independence.—School Library Journal
Jorisch's watercolours creations capture the spunk of the free-thinking Suki.—Montreal Review of Books
An absolutely delightful tale ...—Asian Week
A wonderful story about being yourself, with the added bonus of teaching readers a little about Japanese culture.—Kirkus Reviews
