The Moon Is a Ball: Stories of Panda & Squirrel
Ed Franck, Thé Tjong-Khing (illustrator), translated by David Colmer
With large font and plenty of colour illustrations, early readers can read this for themselves, but really it is a lovely book to read aloud to children. With a calm and philosophical tone and the comfort of the friendship between panda and squirrel, each chapter works particularly well as a bedtime story.
Ages 5-7
