About this deal

Master the Techniques of the Battlefield in a New Persona 5 Tactica Battle Trailer! October 31st | by Adrian Gunning James has a way to speak to your soul. This book is nothing short of comforting and heartwarming' VEX KING

As with Milne's work, Norbury also banks on illustrations getting the point across and getting people interested (he even mentions it in his foreword). For me, it's the art that gives the musings that little extra boost. I mean, look at these two cuties: It is spring by the time they emerge - they'd gotten lost in the swirling mists and had fallen asleep under glittering stars. While they sit watching a warm sun rise, it dawns on them both that a new day means a new beginning, and another magnificent adventure awaits . . . Big Panda and Tiny Dragon embark on a journey through the seasons of the year together. They get lost, as many of us do. But while lost, they discover many beautiful sights they'd never have found had they gone the right way. Told through a series of beautiful drawings and quiet, sometimes silly, conversations, the panda and the dragon explore the thoughts and emotions, hardships and happiness that connect us all. In nature, they learn how to live in the moment, how to be at peace with uncertainty, and how to find the strength to overcome life's obstacles together.I’ve been reading one “season” (for the past 3 bedtimes) to my 6YO son, and the ensuing discussions—mostly from his “insights”—have been an unexpected bonding moment! And yes, I got a signed special edition as you can see. Couldn't resist. Especially since it helps a relatively unknown artist with great talent. The book tells of Giant Panda and his friend, Little Dragon. They are a bit like Winnie-the-Pooh and Piglet if you will (just not by their character). They go on adventures together. Or they are just trying to get from A to B. The problem is that they often make mistakes and thus get lost. But don't we all? They sometimes need help or think of life in general and how to be happy, how to make it better. As we all should. Their musings are life-affirming and giving solace. Big Panda and Tiny Dragon have inspired readers across the world with their message of kindness, hope and resilience. Join the two friends as they continue their journey overcoming life's obstacles together. And although they often find themselves lost, the beautiful sights along the way show us that the wrong path can often lead to the right road.

As they travel to far and distant lands and encounter dangers and challenges they discover that everything they need is already within them, and that change, however scary, can lead to better things. From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Big Panda and Tiny Dragon, follow the two friends as they continue on their journey together . . . James was born in the Forest of Dean and he's spent most of his life writing and drawing. He studied Zoology at university and after graduating he moved to Ireland. From there he travelled around the UK living in Newcastle, Swansea and Cheltenam, some of the time living on a narrowboat.

As they encounter dangers and challenges, they learn that everything they need is already inside them and that change, though sometimes scary, is possible and, with patience, can lead to better things. Norburry προτρέπει τον αναγνώστη να ζήσει τη στιγμή, ή αλλιώς να μην ξεχνάει να ζει προσπαθώντας να καταφέρει να τα βγάλει πέρα με τη ζωή την ίδια, αλλά και να μην καταβάλλεται από την αβεβαιότητα που περιβάλλεται σε κάθε πτυχή της ζωής του.
