Sushi Decides to Go on a Trip

Sushi and his friends are back in the sequel to Tatsuya Tanaka’s bestselling picture book Sushi Came to Buy Some Clothes with his new Sushi picture book Sushi Decides to Go on a Trip. On his way to Osushity (＂osushi＂ and ＂city＂-get it?), Sushi finds himself caught up in all sorts of trouble and adventures, from climbing a mountain of potatoes to fighting peanut mummies Brendan Fraser-style during a search for hidden treasure. WIll he ever find his way to Osushity, where his family is waiting for him? With his unique Mitate art and one-of-a-kind sense of humor, Tanaka Tatsuya cannot help but make the reader giggle at the jokes and delight at his touch of reimagining everyday objects as something completely new.
