What is Suki's Kimono about?

Suki treasures the blue cotton kimono her obachan gave her, so she wears it proudly on her first day back at school. When her classmates ask about her summer, Suki tells them about a lively street festival, a joyful circle dance and special time with her grandmother. Soon, she is humming the music and dancing around the classroom. Suki’s confidence and enthusiasm help everyone see the beauty of celebrating family, culture and being true to yourself.
