When Wrenley travels to a giant panda rescue center in China, she meets Lulu, a young panda who needs special care. What begins as a friendship with one little panda soon becomes an unforgettable summer exploring the science and secrets of Panda Country.
Guided by caretaker Bao, veterinarian Dr. Min Lin, and senior caretaker Mr. Liang, Wrenley ventures into spectacular bamboo-covered mountains. She encounters red pandas and golden snub-nosed monkeys, follows clues left by wild pandas, discovers wildlife camera traps, and learns how researchers study animals without disturbing them.
Back at the rescue center, Lulu is changing too. As the young panda grows stronger and more independent, Wrenley learns about panda paws, powerful jaws, bamboo diets, communication, and the adaptations that help giant pandas survive.
Her adventures also reveal a much bigger story. Wrenley discovers why connected forests matter, how habitat fragmentation affects wildlife, and how protecting panda country can benefit many other species living in the same mountain ecosystem.
Filled with friendship, humor, wildlife science, and conservation, the book also includes Amazing Panda Facts and hands-on science activities children can explore at home.
For curious readers ages 6-10, Wrenley and the Secrets of Panda Country turns one child's unforgettable summer into an invitation to explore, investigate, and care for the natural world.
