SPARKING JOY WITH WORDS
Marie Kondo, the pint-sized paragon of tidiness, is releasing a children’s book. Available for pre-order now, the 40-page text incorporates her KonMari organizational method and is aimed at readers aged three to seven.
Kiki & Jax: The Life-Changing Magic of Friendship centres on the titular characters — one a collector, and the other a sorter.
Although the two enjoy playing together, Kiki’s tchotchkes start getting in the way.
Reads the description: “They have to figure out how to make room for what’s always sparked joy — their friendship.”
Kondo, who has two young children, announced the book on Instagram.
The book is illustrated by Salina Yoon, who’s known for her Penguin and Bear books. It’s scheduled for release Nov. 5.
