Grandma Panda is a wonderful teacher, a wonderful storyteller--and a wonderful cook! Her grandchildren Baobao and Lingling love staying with her every summer, because at Grandma Panda's house each day is an adventure. This summer, with the help of celebrated velist and artist Mingmei Yip, Grandma will take them to a world filled with Chinese calligraphy, kites, kung fu and more! Along the way, they'll get to hear Grandma's stories of a time long ago in China, when everything began. Bright watercolor illustrations make favorite legends--like the tale of Mulan, the woman warrior, and of Luban, the inventor of the kite--come alive. Come join Grandma Panda, Baobao and Lingling for a summer of fun and learning!
