Description

Philosophical, wise, funny and wonderfully illustrated stories about an unbreakable friendship between a panda and a squirrel, from two world greats of children’s literature.



"Captivating text, ideal for reading aloud."



"Full of heart and gentle humor, Panda and Squirrel are sure to please."



"As Franck models charming rapport and low-stakes companionship, Tjong-Khing’s delicate artwork provides nature-filled scenes of glorious suns and a bamboo forest."



"For families who love short, illustrated fiction featuring animals, such as The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Graham or Ulf Nilsson's Detective Gordon series."



"Striking artwork and sweet, funny stories about friendship make The Moon Is a Ball an amusing addition to the philosophical friends genre, alongside Winnie-the-Pooh and Frog and Toad Are Friends."



"[An] upbeat, curiosity-inducing early reader."



Ed Franck is one of Belgium’s most important and innovative children’s writers. He writes for all ages and in all genres: from songs for toddlers to YA novels, detective stories and poetry. He has twice won the prestigious Cultuurprijs of the Flemish Community for Youth Literature.
