A positive and gentle introduction to PDA for children aged 3+. Panda describes the strengths and challenges of PDA, explaining how he finds it very hard to do what others ask him to do, but can thrive and live a playful, happy life when given the right support.

In this positive, gentle and PDA-friendly guide for young children, PDA is explained by a playful Panda who has PDA and is very proud of it. The Panda is full of talents and strengths, but finds it very hard to do what others want. In fact, the Panda has become great at climbing trees and bamboo, and hiding in caves to escape demands!

The Panda addresses the challenges and struggles of PDA honestly, but can also thrive and live a happy life in the right environment, when supported by others.
