Ming the Panda (Paperback)

Born in the mountains of Sichuan, Ming's life is traced from a tiny baby, growing up in the wild. Brought from China to London Zoo in 1938, she quickly becomes a favourite for visitors, especially children. Even Princess Elizabeth, the future Queen, comes to see her. And when the Second World War breaks out, Ming becomes an international celebrity, a symbol of hope in dangerous times.

When Ming dies in 1944 there is great sadness, but her story lives on, "helping to bring people together, shining light and giving hope."

Told as a story within a story, with Yu Rong's evocative illustrations, Ming’s story still resonates today.
