Jasmine Toguchi Books

Read the eight books in order, beginning with Mochi Queen. Each problem stands alone, but Jasmine’s confidence, sibling relationship, and friendships grow across the series.

Books five through eight take Jasmine and her family to Japan. They continue the same series rather than forming a separate travel spinoff.

These are gentle family stories about wanting more independence, comparing oneself with an older sibling, navigating friendship mistakes, and learning to apologize. Emotional conflicts are realistic but reassuring.

Japanese American family traditions and, in the later books, travel in Japan are central to the stories. Cultural details are woven into everyday adventures rather than presented as lessons from outside Jasmine’s family.
