Review by: Dean Schechinger on Dec. 02, 2012 :
I found this to be a thin and somewhat gauzy story. Don't get me wrong. The story is good. It just does not have any action in it and not much of anything happens. It is well written, but I came away feeling that there must be more and yet there isn't more. Two children open a Kimono Box that has grandmother's clothing from Japan. An adult finds them looking at the clothes and explains the significance of the clothing to them. That is all that happens in the story.
