Meet Panda: she’s grumpy, she’s snarky, she’s a ball of mischief, and… she’s been abandoned in the BABY’S room! Follow along as cheeky Panda the stuffy writes letters to Benny, her owner and the big brother, pleading to be rescued from the drooly, boring, (…and kinda cute?) baby.
Librarian and educator Elaine Su's debut picture book tells the story of a snarky, witty Panda who is eager to get back to her owner, Benny, but finds herself begrudingly warming up to the drooly and excitable Baby. Award-winning illustrator, Charlene Chua's irresistibly cute art and clever background details are sure to make every reread feel new! Perfect for little siblings, big siblings, and clever pandas.
