There's always room for one more at the Panda Palace! This rollicking, rhyming counting book, celebrating 31 years in print, is a proven read-aloud winner at home and in the classroom. Join one hungry elephant, two carsick lions, three pigs running from a wolf, and dozens of other playful animals as they swing, bound, and bounce into the Panda Palace for a hearty meal. When the restaurant is totally full, can Mr. Panda make room for one more guest? This PBS StoryTime book is perfect for school units on inclusion, empathy and kindness. Most important, each child will come away knowing that "there will always be room at the Palace for you."
