Dr. Katherine Feng was a veterinarian before a photo safari to Kenya inspired her to pursue a second career as a photographer and tour escort. When she traveled to China in 1982 for a memorial ceremony in honor of her grandfather, General Feng Yuxiang, she felt an immediate connection with the country. She now escorts guests to the Reserve several times each year. Dr. Feng lives in Durango, Colorado.

My granddaughter (age 4) says she wants to be a "panda babysitter" when she grows up. This book, filled with exquisite color photographs and informative text written in a clear, basic style, has only strengthened her resolve! This is a lovely addition to an early childhood classroom and for any youngster with a love for nature.

We both loved this book. I was his teacher aide last year in Kindergarten as Mandarin is his home language. He is a very intelligent boy so the title made him laugh! Pandas don't go to Kindergarten. It was very informational and we both enjoyed it because it's non-fiction. Pandas are special animals to both of us and China is the only place they live in the wild.

I have 2 grand daughters: one is 3 years old and the other is 7 years old and after receiving it, I knew it was the perfect gift for both of them. The pictures are superb and will enthrall both the girls and the text can be read by the 7 year old with a bit of effort. And that's what I want; I want her to become an avid reader and also be motivated to try harder to improve her reading skills. Above the run-of-the-mill children's books, this book deserves the good review it got from the New York Times. Get your couch potatoes sitting upright and read along with them if you need to do so, they won't run across too many Pandas in their everyday life; and they (the Pandas) ALL belong to China, no matter what zoo you may see them in.

Great read for a kindergarten class learning about pandas. I wish it had more info about wild pandas vs. those being reared in captivity, but I guess that was the point of the book.
