From the back cover

Panda has big, big paws. Luna has quick paws. Tip, tap, tip, tap! Here is one little purple flower. Panda lifts one paw and steps slow, slow, slow. “Soft paws.” Not one petal bends. Here comes Luna, running! Can quick paws go slow? Sniff, sniff. Soon Panda and Luna lie down by the flower.

About this book

Little ones are often the biggest thing near something small, whether it is a flower, a pet, or a new baby. In this book, the biggest dog of all shows what slow paws look like, and Luna copies him.

Try reading the quick parts quickly and the soft parts in a whisper. Afterward, take a slow, soft-paws walk across the room together.
