This books is chock-full of relevant information with lots of content-specific language。 There is a combinations of bright orange and green background with photography of pandas, maps, and even cute little panda cartoons。 Together it has a strong 90's vibe。 It looks like the same color palette from TV shows about animals that aired Saturday mornings。 The information is not stylized at all。 It is a series of facts about Pandas without using more approachable language。 It reads similarly to a text This books is chock-full of relevant information with lots of content-specific language。 There is a combinations of bright orange and green background with photography of pandas, maps, and even cute little panda cartoons。 Together it has a strong 90's vibe。 It looks like the same color palette from TV shows about animals that aired Saturday mornings。 The information is not stylized at all。 It is a series of facts about Pandas without using more approachable language。 It reads similarly to a text book。 However, the cute photos of Pandas rolling around do a lot of heavy lifting。 There is also a cartoon panda telling puns every few pages。 This book reads like something for someone who is already interested in Pandas。 I don't think the writing would interest someone under fourth grade because the language is very advanced。 However, Pandas are so cute, kids might learn something on accident while flipping through the photos 。。。more

Next level read on Panda BearsI recently started learning Spanish and this book is Great。 I would place it at a 2nd grade reading level。 It talks about panda bears in depth but not on a level that is too academic。

The reason I wanted to read this book is that I love animals。 Pandas are one of the few animals that I don't know much about。 It was nice to sit down and learn about them and where they live。 The illustration that showed the pandas in their habitat was beautiful。 While I was reading this, I learned that female pandas raise their cubs on their own and that males can weigh up to 330 lb。 The reason I wanted to read this book is that I love animals。 Pandas are one of the few animals that I don't know much about。 It was nice to sit down and learn about them and where they live。 The illustration that showed the pandas in their habitat was beautiful。 While I was reading this, I learned that female pandas raise their cubs on their own and that males can weigh up to 330 lb。 。。。more

I read this book to a class and they really loved learning about Pandas in a fun and informative way。 The realistic pictures added to the excitement。 You learned about what Pandas eat to where they play and how they are born。 I even like the little jokes and riddles included in the book

The following book is cute informational book that goes through basic information on the giant panda。 Some of the content includes the basic features that distinguish a panda from other bears, what they eat, where they live, etc。The author does a good job of not putting too much information in the book to where a child becomes confused and there are not too many big words to where the child does not understand the information。 The author also includes arrows, icons, and bold lettering to help th The following book is cute informational book that goes through basic information on the giant panda。 Some of the content includes the basic features that distinguish a panda from other bears, what they eat, where they live, etc。The author does a good job of not putting too much information in the book to where a child becomes confused and there are not too many big words to where the child does not understand the information。 The author also includes arrows, icons, and bold lettering to help the readers stage engaged。 The pages also have vibrant colors to catch the reader's eye。The genre of the book is informational because it contains facts and technical vocabulary。I enjoyed this book because it is definitely something that I would have read as a child and the photographs used throughout the story were appealing。 A lot of the times children will go through phases of interest and it is because of books like these。 The information is easy to learn and they are able to remember the content and share it with others。 。。。more

This is my informational book!The entire book is all about the Giant Panda and the Red Panda。 They go through different facts about the animals。 We read about their diet, when they have babies, where they usually live。 It was super interesting。 I had no idea that the baby cubs were born completely blind。 I also didn't know that there was a specific Wolong Panda Reserve in China designed to help keep the pandas safe。 It's really sad that the Giant Panda and the Red Panda are going extinct。 This b This is my informational book!The entire book is all about the Giant Panda and the Red Panda。 They go through different facts about the animals。 We read about their diet, when they have babies, where they usually live。 It was super interesting。 I had no idea that the baby cubs were born completely blind。 I also didn't know that there was a specific Wolong Panda Reserve in China designed to help keep the pandas safe。 It's really sad that the Giant Panda and the Red Panda are going extinct。 This book will help you to get all the information straight! Did you know that the Giant Panda can not walk on their hind legs like most bears can do。 The Giant Panda is more similar to a cat or something, but they are so big。I loved the way this book looked and all the different elements。 The National Geographic organization does a fantastic job。 I was excited to see that there was a Table of Contents in the beginning。 If you are a child doing a specific research project, a Table of Contents would be very helpful。 The photographs were beautiful and made me excited to learn more about Pandas。 They had diagrams explaining the body of a Panda。 They had facts and used numerical values when they explained how long and how big a Panda can be。 The words were factual, but still easy to read for children。 Even though this is considered an informational book, they were able to throw in some humor。 On some of the pages, they was a joke in the corner。 It wasn't just the words on the page, they had extra features。 I feel like that is definitely post-modernism。 This book talks about the country of China。 It is cool that children can be learning about an animal, but it also helps to learn more about a culture and what China looks like。 It talked about how it rains a lot and there are mountains。 In this case, the more information the better! You also can look at the top right corner of the book's cover to see what reading level it is。 This book is Level 2。I loved this book! My favorite animal has always been the Giant Panda。 As a child, I would always check out books like this at the library。 It was very informational and goes over a ton of facts。 I would recommend any National Geographic Kids books。 They do a wonderful job with the content and the photographs。 My favorite part is when it talks about the Panda Baby Boom。 It's exciting to hear that there are cubs being born。 We don't want this beautiful animal to go extinct。 。。。more

Another book for my niece。 Nice full color photos, interesting facts, and definitions of some words with a review at the end, as well as phonetic spelling of unique words。 I thought the jokes at the top of a page would appeal to kids, even if I still don't get one of them: "what's black and white and red all over? A panda convention。" I finally figured out since it was on the page with the red panda, I guess that's where the red comes in? Still, could they not have come up with a better punchlin Another book for my niece。 Nice full color photos, interesting facts, and definitions of some words with a review at the end, as well as phonetic spelling of unique words。 I thought the jokes at the top of a page would appeal to kids, even if I still don't get one of them: "what's black and white and red all over?

Love National Geographic! This is helping me with my animal unit in science :) The perfect reading level for my students!

Well who doesn't love Pandas! And who doesn't love National Geographic? This is a great book for kids who want to learn about panda bears。 It does a great job telling us all the important information, such as habitat, diet, characteristics, etc。。。 The pictures are informative (and cute of course) and I really think this would be a good one to use for a simple animal report in early grades to introduce them to the process of finding information on a certain subject/animal。 Well who doesn't love Pandas!

A good picture book about pandas for early readers。 My son, who is a toddler, loves this book and asks to read it every day, and I talk about the pictures in simple terms for him。 If your younger child likes pandas, this is a great place to start :)

I absolutely loved this book! I love panda bears, so this was a perfect book for me。 It was also really informative, and talked about the eating habits of pandas, and how they're more like a raccoon or cat, rather than a bear。 I also didn't realize how big they were; the size of a black bear。 Inalso didn't know how shy they were, or that they had fur on the bottom of their feet to protect them from the cold。 It was really sad to learn there only about 1,600 pandas left in the wild, found almost I absolutely loved this book!

They had great pictures and it was so informative and engaging。 Wonderful book! 。。。more

I really liked this book because it was very informative。 I learned things from the book that I did not know about Pandas before。 I love reading about Pandas and thought the book did a good job of providing information without being overwhelming。 The book also provided definitions of words used such as habitat and saliva。 The illustrations were real photos which I really enjoyed。 This book can be used in the classroom for an introduction to learning about bears, animals and even China。 Students I really liked this book because it was very informative。 I learned things from the book that I did not know about Pandas before。 I love reading about Pandas and thought the book did a good job of providing information without being overwhelming。 The book also provided definitions of words used such as habitat and saliva。 The illustrations were real photos which I really enjoyed。 This book can be used in the classroom for an introduction to learning about bears, animals and even China。 Students could look at the book on their own for research as well。 。。。more
