BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) – OPTIONAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: LOW
Miko wants to make the perfect sushi for her grandmother’s birthday. However, every time she tries to make it, it turns out lopsided and ugly. Miko buys a precision perfect sushi platter made by a robot, but later realizes that food tastes better when made with love.
I could see this being used in an elementary school classroom when learning about Asian cultures as Japanese food, culture, and language is featured throughout the book. However, it’s such a niche topic, I just don’t know how many Utah K-3 students are familiar with sushi. The art is fun and different, a mixture of collage and acrylics, and the overall message is sweet.
