Little Panda: The World Welcomes Hua Mei at the San Diego Zoo

32 pp. | Simon | March, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-689-84310-0 $$16.95
(2) K-3 Hua Mei is the first panda born in captivity in the Western Hemisphere to survive more than four days. Ryder uses simple words and short sentences in a text geared toward a very young audience while providing additional scientific information in smaller print. Large portraits of the cub are plentiful, and sequences of smaller photos showing her in action provide a rare "you are there" quality.
