Tracks of a Panda by Nick Dowson

A tiny baby panda is born in the wild in China. As he and his mother need food and safety, they travel around in search of a good home. There is a narrative line to this nonfiction story, plus a panda fact on each double page spread. Chinese style paintings match the text beautifully. An index is inculded.

Second. In addition to providing a wonderful overview of Giant Pandas, this title offers other glimpses into life in China. For example, the end pages include letters from the Chinese alphabet and there are beautiful illustrations of the pandas' habitats. Excellent index.
