Colorful illustrations by the author complement this tale of a picky panda bear at the San Diego Zoo. The panda worries everyone at the Zoo by not eating, until the keeper finds just the right thing to please the hungry bear. This charming read-aloud story is based on the true story of one of the first pandas in the San Diego Zoo's Giant Panda Conservation program, whose problem was solved by a nearby botanical garden.
