Steve Antony's first tale about the irreverent Mr Panda in his pursuit for proper manners is fast becoming a modern classic.

Learn to say 'please' with the grumpiest of pandas! The bestselling picture book, now available as a cased board book for the youngest of readers.

Panda has a tray of doughnuts. Animal after animal tells him the one they want, but it's only when Lemur says 'please' politely that Panda will give any out!

About the Author

Steve Antony - a graduate from the prestigious MA in Children's Book Illustration at Anglia Ruskin - is the author-illustrator of The Queen's Hat and Please Mr Panda. Only debuting in 2014, Steve has had enormous success: The Queen's Hat won the Evening Standard's Oscar's First Book Prize, and was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize. Please Mr Panda was chosen as Picture Book of the Month by US retailer Barnes & Noble, who held over 650 Panda events over one weekend.

Steve aims to create picture books that are slightly 'off the wall', books that children will laugh at and adults will tweet about, but most of all, books that he enjoys.

Industry Reviews

A simple morality tale... does the job beautifully. - The Times (Children's Book of the Week)

Households with toddlers may find a new family catchphrase. Simple yet funny enough for multiple readings. - Kirkus

The Queen's Hat highlighted Antony as a hot new talent, and this, his third book, will win him more fans. A witty look at manners. - Bookseller

Smart design decisions by Antony distinguish his visual storytelling. - Publishers Weekly

Steve Antony is one to keep an eye on. - picturebooksblogger

Remember to say "please"and "thank you" if you want a sweet treat from this bear! - Buzzfeed

A beautifully designed and illustrated picture book of unparalleled deliciousness - WRD About Books

uses monochrome to splendid effect, not just for the quite justifiably grumpy Mr Panda, but for all the animals he meets and to whom he offers his delicious, brightly-coloured tray of doughnuts. Each of them is refused and clever young children will soon guess the reason why - The School Librarian
