In "Jasmine Toguchi, Mochi Queen," eight-year-old Jasmine Toguchi is excited to celebrate the Japanese tradition of mochitsuki, where families make mochi rice cakes. Determined to prove she can help despite being told it’s traditionally a boy's job, Jasmine is eager to join in the fun and showcase her skills. With the support of her family, she navigates challenges and learns the importance of perseverance and cultural heritage. As she discovers her own strengths, Jasmine also finds her place in the traditions of her family, ultimately showing that anyone can take part in cherished customs, regardless of gender.
