Summary

The journey of Big Panda and Tiny Dragon continues with an inspiring story of friendship and discovery for readers of all ages。

In the eagerly anticipated follow up to the international bestseller, The Journey: Big Panda and Tiny Dragon continues the adventures of two unlikely traveling companions as they embark on a path that brings them farther from home, and closer to each other and themselves。  

“Change,” said Big Panda。 “even if you don’t know where it will lead, is better than stagnation。”

When Tiny Dragon feels unhappy, he confides in Big Panda, who leads his friend on a journey to heal his heart。 They explore new lands, encounter extraordinary experiences, face demanding challenges, and, ultimately, find contentment。 As Big Panda and Tiny Dragon trek further on their trail of acceptance, they learn that changes and challenges are a natural part of life and essential for growth。

Illustrated with the same charm and warmth as the original bestseller, Big Panda and Tiny Dragon , this all-new spiritual journey imparts both ancient wisdom, and soothes today’s troubled souls。 Full of inspiration and touching humor, The Journey: Big Panda and Tiny Dragon  is a heartwarming tale of adventure and acceptance。
 

BELOVED AROUND THE WORLD: James Norbury’s debut Big Panda and Tiny Dragon , based on the popular Instagram account of the same name, is an international hit that inspired and delighted fans around the world, and reached #1 in his native UK。

A TALE FOR ALL AGES: In The Journey , the plucky pair’s spirit of adventure will resonate with readers from toddlers to grandparents, and the engaging narrative is perfect for bedtime and storytime。 

INSPIRING ILLUSTRATIONS: Influenced by calligraphy and Japanese woodcuts, James Norbury’s charming illustrations are filled with detail, bursting with color, and brimming with charm and humor。 

GRACIOUS GIFT: A beautiful volume with a timeless message of hope, The Journey offers inspiration and support for anyone embarking on an uncertain adventure, from a new job to a new day。

I stood in the book aisle (for way too long) and read this book, then purchased it to share with friends and family。 A journey to foster self-reflection and growth, as well as inner peace and forward movement in life, with simple illustrations, it is a delight。 I will lend this book out, but always ask for its return s I can reread it myself。

Packed with the messages we often forget, though we know in our hearts。 I love the art in this, and the story is an excellent reflection of the struggles we will or are already probably facing。 Definitely a little book I'd like to read again and again。 Packed with the messages we often forget, though we know in our hearts。 I love the art in this, and the story is an excellent reflection of the struggles we will or are already probably facing。 Definitely a little book I'd like to read again and again。 。。。more

This book will both warm and heal your heart in a beautiful way。 I got halfway through the shop and knew that I had to buy this book and finish it。 This book is about friendship, life and healing。 When reading this I was stunned by the beautiful illustrations and the words of the writer。 James Norbury has created just the book that can give you a hug and make you feel not so alone in this journey we call life。 This may be fiction but the fact that life is ever-changing and hard rings true。 If yo This book will both warm and heal your heart in a beautiful way。 I got halfway through the shop and knew that I had to buy this book and finish it。 This book is about friendship, life and healing。 When reading this I was stunned by the beautiful illustrations and the words of the writer。 James Norbury has created just the book that can give you a hug and make you feel not so alone in this journey we call life。 This may be fiction but the fact that life is ever-changing and hard rings true。 If you need something to bring hope back into life then this is the book for you。 Go read it now!

This was far more moving than I was expecting。 The message hits especially strongly as an immigrant。

Prachtig boek 🤍 “Problemen zouden ons niet moeten tegenhouden。 Zo laat de natuur ons simpelweg weten dat we een ander pad moeten verkennen。”

Marloes

Een lief verhaal over somberheid, ongelukkig zijn en verandering, over je blik op de wereld, over je openstellen voor nieuwe ervaringen en je overgeven aan de overtuiging dat zelfs de grootste stormen weer overgaan。 Een warm verhaal over vriendschap, levenslessen en de schoonheid van het leven en je omgeving, welke obstakels ook op je pad komen。 De prachtige illustraties maken het helemaal af!

I felt a bit sad reading this, I felt like I was Tiny Dragon :( It is a sad story but also uplifting。

Mary Catelli

More adventures of the twosome, this time in a narrative。 It was weaker, I think, because there wasn't always harmony between the moments of wisdom and the narrative, and also Panda made a decision that felt undermotivated。 Still, many points gained from the sequence。 More adventures of the twosome, this time in a narrative。 It was weaker, I think, because there wasn't always harmony between the moments of wisdom and the narrative, and also Panda made a decision that felt undermotivated。 Still, many points gained from the sequence。 。。。more

this journey is a wonderful sequel, as fantastic as the first adventure。。。though can be seen as a quick/easy read it must be read slowly--one needs to savor every last word and enjoy the moment as there is so much more to this simple story that is filled with many wonderful quotes & beautiful drawings。。。"It's natural to be scared, but sometimes we must carry on anyway。 Fear will not stop you from dying, but it may stop you from living。" (p。58)。。。"some situations, we cannot change and should try this journey is a wonderful sequel, as fantastic as the first adventure。。。though can be seen as a quick/easy read it must be read slowly--one needs to savor every last word and enjoy the moment as there is so much more to this simple story that is filled with many wonderful quotes & beautiful drawings。。。"It's natural to be scared, but sometimes we must carry on anyway。 Fear will not stop you from dying, but it may stop you from living。" (p。58)。。。"some situations, we cannot change and should try to accept as they are。 That acceptance brings with it great peace。" (p。 87)。。。 。。。more

I would give this book 4。5/5 stars, although I didn’t love it as much as the first one I still really liked it。

این سومین کتابیه که با این سبک می‌خونم。 نقاشی‌های کتاب خیلی قشنگ بود و اژدهای کوچک خیلی بانمک نقاشی شده。داستانش خیلب ساده‌تر از بقیه داستان‌های این سبک بود اما هماهنگیش با نقاشی‌ها قشنگش کرده بود。بعد ار توضیحات نویسنده در انتهاب کتاب درباره نقاشی‌ها، برگشتم و دوباره نقاشی‌ها رو با دقت بیشتر دیدم و لذت بردم。

This book is seriously beautiful and something that I felt I could really relate to。 It is full of the most inspiring art work and quotes that have really resonated with me。 I can’t recommend this enough。 It’s an easy and comforting read that will help you make sense of your own emotions and your outlook on life。 I suspect that this is a book I will constantly go back to through out my life。

تغییر، هرچند کمی ترسناک، امکان پذیر است و با صبر و حوصله می‌توان به چیزی بهتر منجر شود。

I。 Loved。 These。 Books。 So。 Much Unlike the first one,this book had a little of storyline,it was extremely beautiful and it made me smile the whole time I was reading it。The illustrations again were beautiful。 I really really loved it。5/5 🌟

Beautiful artwork and a cute story。 The dialogue is sometimes a bit over the top and only sounds good if you don't think about it too much, but there are some good thoughts in the story that provide some good ways to look at life, the world and change。 Beautiful artwork and a cute story。 The dialogue is sometimes a bit over the top and only sounds good if you don't think about it too much, but there are some good thoughts in the story that provide some good ways to look at life, the world and change。 。。。more

Although sadder than the first book, this one is equally as beautiful and moving。 Somehow the author perfectly captured my struggles with depression and how even when you start your recovery it isn't linear and how nothing is ever quite the same。 However, this book reminded me that change is not always bad。I doubt that the author had in mind an experience exactly like mine when writing the book but I'm glad that's what it is。 Will definitely be returning to it often。 Although sadder than the first book, this one is equally as beautiful and moving。 Somehow the author perfectly captured my struggles with depression and how even when you start your recovery it isn't linear and how nothing is ever quite the same。 However, this book reminded me that change is not always bad。I doubt that the author had in mind an experience exactly like mine when writing the book but I'm glad that's what it is。 Will definitely be returning to it often。 。。。more

Quick read。 I thought it was a very Buddhist and/or Stoic point of view (not a bad thing in my opinion)。 I appreciated the author’s afterword; felt it was better presented after reading than before。
