Panda Proud

Panda Proud is a picture book written by Phoebe Fox and illustrated by Michael Hale. It is a story of true friendship and the connection between service for others and self-worth. Panda is a bumbly, tumbly little cub, whose best friend, Tiger, is always by her side. One day Tiger gets very sick. Panda and her mama decide to join a group of caring animals, whose aim is to help children with illnesses. As the group’s fashion show draws near, Panda worries she’ll trip and fall on the runway. When her best friend shows up and offers to help her, they both feel a sense of pride that can only come from being there for someone you love. Fox wrote the book for PANDA – People Acting Now Discover Answers, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the non-profit.
