Learn all there is to know in this board book about one of the cutest, fluffiest, hungriest mammals around.

Giant pandas: they are indigenous to China and are adored the world over. But they are more than a bundle of fluff and squeaks. With this board book, toddlers and their care providers will fall in love all over again when they learn that giant pandas are also energetic climbers and swimmers, and that they may eat around 10,000 pounds of bamboo in a year.

With her signature combination of accessible, kid-friendly text and bold illustrations, Gail Gibbons also introduces the ways people around the world are helping to save giant pandas' homes. Maybe you can help too!

From gailgibbons.com: I was born in Oak Park, Illinois, in 1944. Even as a little child, I was always busy putting books together. Sometimes I would bind them with yarn to hold the pages together. I've always loved drawing and painting. I was also a very curious child. My parents tell me that I was always asking lots and lots of questions.Later, I went on to the University of Illinois, where I studied graphic design. Then I moved to New York City, where I got a job doing artwork for television shows. Eventually I was asked to do the artwork for a children's show. While doing that show, some of the children asked me if I had ever thought of doing children's books. My mind immediately recalled how much I enjoyed doing that type of thing when I was a child. So I put an idea for a book together and right away a publisher bought it. That book was called Willy and His Wheel Wagon. Since then, over 170 books that I have written and illustrated have been published. The type of books I write are non-fiction books. This is because I love researching so much. I get to ask lots of questions, just like when I was a kid. I also get to travel and meet lots of interesting people. While doing research for my book Nature's Green Umbrella: Tropical Rain Forests, I traveled to two islands where there are tropical rain forests, Saba and Dominica. I also had a great time writing and illustrating the book. I get a lot of pleasure from doing the type of work I do.
