A Song in the Mist cover

A shy panda bear finds the courage to be seen.

The story of the whimsical friendship between a shy panda and a boy, their lives forever linked by music and mist.Chi is a panda who loves to listen. Being silent brings sounds to her ears: the swish of bamboo, the chitter of birds, and then one day, a new sound, gentle and sweet. The sound leads Chi to a boy, who blows breath through a piece of bamboo. Chi is enchanted and longs to make friends, but she is shy and hides instead. As the boy searches for Chi and mist gathers in the forest, she must find the courage to help him-even if it means being seen . . .
