New is Fun, Too

Join Panda Ya as she learns that new and different can also be great fun! With the support and compassion of her Ma and Pa, discover how Panda Ya embraces the differences between her old and new ways of life. While exploring her new neighborhood, Panda Ya finds new playgrounds, friends, modes of transportation, snacks, and even a new way to see the rest of her family. To her delight, she ends her first long day noticing that the moon she admired from her old home was the very same moon at her new home. If it could be happy there, then so could she. 

Ariel Leshchinsky's book encourages families to project love, strength and openness as children adjust to big changes. Whether relocating across the sea, like Panda Ya's family, or across town, children and their families can work together to discover that new is fun, too!
