From the publisher

The first Amanda Panda book!

Amanda Panda has BIG ideas for her first day of school. But when things don’t go according to plan and when a pesky girl dressed in head-to-toe pink decides to be her best friend, Amanda walks out on kindergarten and joins her brother in second grade. It takes an unlikely partner to fix Amanda’s terrible day—and to teach her about friendship, tolerance, and how to cope with life’s ups and downs.
