Review
A father and child panda walk along having a conversation with the child trying to convince the father as to why "I want pants". The child gives lots of reasons why. In the background the reader can see glimpses of something following them, the young panda then finds a scarecrow and tries on the pants, then creatively uses them against the leopard, and by the time the father is almost convinced about the pants, the child no longer wants pants, but shoes. Nicely illustrated that extend the text in telling the story. Cute story with something for both the child and the adult who will recognize the child's behavior of wanting something then losing interest.
Overall Book Score: good
