Reviews

[Judy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Every child who's a panda fan will want to experience an adventure like Jake's. Some factual info is provided, but it's definitely minimal. A little more about pandas would have made the story even better. (For example, did Jake behave appropriately in the presence of the 'wild' panda?)
