K-Gr 2–In this adorable board book, Little Panda is tired of eating bamboo and spends the day trying to find different foods to eat. Little Panda appears as a photographed entity, set fancifully among drawings of other animals and flora. The panda is charmingly expressive, as readers tour what other animals eat and how Panda feels about it. The illustrations draw onlookers into Panda’s quest and on through to the happy conclusion.

VERDICT Children will fall in love with Little Panda.
