How Many Baby Pandas?

By Sandra Markle

Book Description

Baby pandas by the numbers in an adorable photo-essay from Sandra Markle

China's Wolong Giant Panda Breeding and Research Center, sixteen baby pandas were born into captivity at the same time. Life in the wild would have been difficult, but with the help of these scientists, all sixteen received the food and care they needed to survive. Using basic addition and counting with numbers 1-8 Markle tells the story of these remarkable—and numerous—baby panda as they grow and play together.

“A solid introduction to an endangered species.” –Kirkus Reviews

“Clear, accessible text by noted children’s science writer Markle and sharp color photos provide an engaging, informative introduction to baby pandas.”—Booklist

★“Compared to many panda books available, the photos here are exceptional. This book will be constantly in demand as a counting book and for information about this popular animal.”–School Library Journal, starred review
