This enchanting tale follows the siblings as they discover their grandmother's broken dishes, leading them on a magical journey of restoration and self-discovery. Using the ancient Japanese art of Kintsugi, which mends broken pottery with gold, Kin and Sugi learn to see beauty in the flawed and imperfect.

The story is brought to life with stunning illustrations, capturing the essence of Kintsugi and the transformative power of seeing beauty in the broken.

It invites children to view their flaws not as faults, but as opportunities for creating something extraordinary and unique.
