Panda Kindergarten
By: Joanne Ryder
This children's book is about sixteen young giant panda cubs who are at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda at the Wolong Nature Preserve. I would use the term "children's" very lightly. As an adult reading this story, I found myself falling in love with the story of these adorable cubs from cover to cover.
These panda cubs are shown being raised together and playing together. We are shown different skills they acquire over time to help them to be able to survive in the wild. The cubs have grown up together in this anything but 'ordinary' kindergarten class.
This book is a great read containing lots of factual information and incredible pictures that really bring the story of these incredible cubs to live. Thanks to the staff at the Wolong Nature Preserve, these cubs finally have a true chance of survival. This is the story of their journey toward a better life.
I think younger audiences will definitely enjoy this book. It would be great for teaching younger children about the different kinds of animals and the lifestyles they live.
