“In this new early chapter book series, Florence introduces readers to a bright character who is grappling with respecting authority while also forging her own path. Vuković’s illustrations are expressive and imbue Jasmine and the Toguchi family with sweetness … This first entry nicely balances humor with the challenges of growing up; readers will devour it.”
—School Library Journal on Jasmine Toguchi, Mochi Queen
“Adorable and heartwarming.”
