PS
Pom Pom Panda wakes up grumpy: "nothing was right," from his soggy cereal to his freezing "flannel" (washcloth). Even his playground friends can't cheer him up: he yells "GO AWAY!", then quickly realizes his mistake. Young readers will empathize with Pom Pom's feelings and actions, but some may stumble on the import's British terminology. The simple, saturated illustrations are well balanced.
