High on a misty mountainside, red panda cubs Popo and Ketu live happily with their mama. As the sisters grow, they promise Mama that they will always stay close to home. But while cautious Popo is content to spend her days in the family’s cosy treetop nest, bold Ketu dreams of excitement and exploration. So when Ketu creeps off down the mountain in search of adventure, Popo must make a choice: will she keep her promise to Mama, or look after her sister?
An action-packed, heart-warming tale of being true to your word and true to yourself, from the creators of the international bestseller The Lion Inside.

The best part of this book when both the pandas promised the mum and one of them broke the promise.
Loved this book, it’s like me and my sister
This was a very good book. The pandas didn’t listen to mummy and went down the mountain. They were nearly eaten by a leopard, I didn’t know what was going to happen!
I liked ketu best because she liked to explore but learned a lesson to not break promises and go off.
It teaches you that it is always important to keep your promises!
My favourite characters were the two sisters, Popo and Ketu. They promised to always look out for each other and made another promise to not go far from their mother. The two sisters loved to explore and broke their promise to not go past the pine tree. They discovered a new place that they like because, there was lots of bamboo, they loved picking flowers and there was a hill that they rolled down, but they ran into a snow leopard. They had to swing a vine to save each other and get back to their mum and promised to...

I would recommend it to children or adults who likes red pandas
I really liked it when Ketu and Popo went back to their mother and I didn’t like it when Ketu fell into the worse kind of trouble
I liked when the pandas got back home to their mum at the end.
I read it to my brother who loves pandas
I like this book
It it important that any promises that you make and kept!
I like seeing how the panda siblings worked together to help each other out as we need to help each other!
I liked the book.
I liked the characters in the story and how they looked out for each other. Really nice pictures of landscapes in the story too.
The silly panda's nearly got eaten because the broke their promise.
They did break one promise but it is good that they are safe and happy having cuddles.
It is a very good book and it tells you that it is very important to listen to your parents .
Good.
It was a great book and I found it very interesting and I really enjoyed it.
There are some really lovely pictures which we enjoyed looking at in more detail and talking about. It also really helps early readers read this independently, as the images act as a fantastic visual aid.
Poop was my favourite.
The pandas wanted to go to the mountain.Țhey promised to listen to mum.
I liked that they ran off and the mountain leopard tried to get Ketu. But Popo got a vine and helped her sister. And the sprinted back to their mother.
It was very funny but the leopard was scary. And when the pandas were frightened their faces looked very very funny. It is a fiction book.
I am a big fan of the books by this author. My favourite is The Koala Who Could but I saw this one in the library and asked if I could borrow it. I asked to read it the same night at bedtime and it's really lovely. It makes me think of adventures with my little sister and how much I love her.
This is a beautiful written book about family and the importance of being there for eachother when things get tricky.
