Written by Emily Satoko Seo. Illustrated by Mique Moriuchi.

Miko likes things to be perfect. When she makes lopsided sushi for her grandmothers birthday, she replaces it with perfectly formed sushi created by a restaurant robot. Upon delivering her gift, Miko discovers that kokoro (heart) not impeccability is the key ingredient to the perfect present. Sprinkled with engaging onomatopoeia, this unique title is infused with Japanese culture and delivers a universal message about the value of intention. A do-it-yourself sushi recipe is included.
