"Charming Graphic Novels for Transitioning from Picture Books to Chapter Books"--five stars --YA Bookcentral

In the tradition of Narwhal and Jelly, here is a playful and humorous graphic novel series about two besties who could not be more different from each other.

We know what you're thinking: Penguin and Panda should not be friends! The very idea is absurd! Penguin feels all the feels able to be felt, while Panda is low-key cool. Penguin loves surprises and being scared while Panda prefers a good nap. Penguin always follows directions; Panda plays things by ear. Yet these two yin and yang besties love experiencing the world through each other's eyes with abundant humor and a generosity of spirit.

The stories often convey positive messages about imagination, creativity, friendship, acceptance, and the value of being true to oneself.

Each book contains four short stories, and some STEM-related fun facts. This format allows young readers to easily digest the content and provides natural stopping points for reading sessions.

Fanni Mezes' charming illustrations, filled with expressive characters immediately draw the readers to dive into Penguin and Panda's playful world.

The language used in the series is accessible and appropriate for early readers, making it a great choice for children who are developing their reading skills.
