Suki's Kimono is a fun realistic fiction book about a young girl named Suki, who absolutely loves her blue cotton kimono. This was a very inspiring and fun book to read. The author writes about how it is important to be proud of your heritage.
Kimono is a Japanese term that originally translates to clothing or something to wear, but until the recent years, it has been more specifically referred to the traditional Japanese clothing for women, which is an ankle-length, straight-cut, and wrap-around dress that features long and wide sleeves and secured at the waist with a wide sash, called obi.
