Jasmine Toguchi, Bridge Builder

About this book

The seventh installment of this award-winning chapter book series for fans of Alvin Ho and Ivy & Bean follows Jasmine's trouble with her big sister on their adventure across Japan! Japan is awesome, but Jasmine Toguchi is beginning to miss home and her best friend, Linnie. She's hoping her next adventure to a village called Kabo, where her grandmother grew up, is just what she needs to get out of this rut. Jasmine is pleased to find out there's a beach, tangerine grove, and even a local festival to attend. She is hoping to explore with her big sister, Sophie. But, walnuts! Sophie is no fun. All she wants to do is read her Japanese manga and stay inside. If Jasmine's best friend Linnie was there, she'd definitely play with her, so why won't Sophie? With humor and warmth, Debbi Michiko Florence tells a relatable story of new experiences, sisterhood, and kindness at every corner. Paired with Elizabet Vukovic's playful illustrations, readers can't help but root for Jasmine as you explore Japan alongside her.
