Book 2 about “Gigi and Ojiji.” As in Gigi and Ojiji: What’s in a Name? , multigenerational relationships, Japanese culture, and social and emotional learning are highlighted in this sweet biracial story. It’s breakfast time and Gigi makes her favorite meal — Peanut Butter Toast. But Ojiji doesn’t like peanut butter. He prefers Japanese foods — like natto, made from fermented soybeans. Plenty of topics for discussion. Colorful digital artwork. A glossary in back of book for meaning of Japanese words but does not include pronunciation.
