Why this book counts
- Life Science
- Environment & Ecology
- Maker / Problem-Solving
- Story / Adventure
Panda-Monium makes Teddy Fitzroy solve the disappearance of FunJungle's rare new giant panda, Li Ping, while zoo-animal behavior keeps producing clues and complications. The mystery's comic action depends on distinguishing natural and learned behavior and on understanding why a panda's care, ownership, and transport are unusually constrained.
The science inside
- Animals & Zoology
- Conservation
Your child will meet:
- Animal behavior can be innate, learned through training, or acquired through interaction and observation.
- Individual animals of the same species can show different temperaments and learned responses.
- Rare species in zoos require specialized care, secure transport, and conservation agreements.
- A behavioral claim becomes stronger when it fits repeated observations rather than one funny incident.

Parent effort: Quick discussion
New York Times bestselling author Teddy Fitzroy returns as FunJungle's resident sleuth when the zoo's newest addition goes missing--before she even arrives!--in the latest novel in New York Times bestselling author Stuart Gibbs's FunJungle series. FunJungle is frenzied, awaiting the arrival of its most thrilling animal yet--Li Ping--a rare and very expensive giant panda that the zoo went to enormous lengths to secure. But when the truck transporting Li Ping shows up, its precious cargo has vanished into thin air. The FBI steps in to investigate, and Teddy is happy to leave the job in their (supposedly) capable hands. After all, FunJungle has never encountered a crime this serious. But when someone threatens to blackmail Teddy's girlfriend, Summer, if he doesn't solve the crime, his involvement in this mystery is no longer black and white.
