Panda by Susan Bonners
When the panda cub was born, she weighed only five ounces and was so tiny that she could be covered easily by one of her mother’s paws. But she was held tightly against her mother’s large, warm body and protected until she could survive on her own. With beautiful watercolor paintings and a story as gentle as a lullaby, Susan Bonners tells about the lives of wild giant pandas. This is narrative nonfiction at its best.

Her mother seems sad and worried all the time, having a baby brother makes getting settled in even harder, a box of her prized horse figurines has been lost, and to top it all off, the new house is far away from Annie's favorite uncle, who shared with her what she loves best of all: piano music. But when Annie roller-skates by Mrs. Bergstrom's house, she hears beautiful melodies -- Maybe this new place may someday feel like home.

When Edwina's great-grandaunt and namesake decides to move to a nursing home, Edwina is recruited by her mom to help clean out her aunt's attic. There she discovers a cache of letters from Aunt Edwina, who had been an activist, to various public officials, all requesting improvements in public locations around town. Then Edwina notices a local playground in sorry disrepair and decides to do some letter-writing of her own. Susan Bonners's black-and-white illustrations offset a charming story of a regular girl who finds a way to make a difference in her community.
