Title
The Perfect Sushi - Paperback
by Emily Satoko Seo (Author), Mique Moriuchi (Illustrator)
"A sweet story that reminds readers to always put their hearts into whatever they do" -- Kirkus Reviews
Miko likes things to be perfect. She folds her clothes like origami. She always paints inside the lines and writes each character neatly and carefully. When Miko decides to make sushi for her grandmother's birthday, it comes out looking lopsided and just not right. It's so frustrating! So, she decides to replace it with perfectly formed sushi created by a restaurant robot. But when she delivers her gift, Miko discovers that kokoro (heart) - not perfection - is the key ingredient to a perfect present.- A do-it-yourself sushi recipe included at the back
- Sprinkled with engaging onomatopeia
- A read-aloud for kids who want to do everything perfectly all the time
