So, The kids sets up something while playing and the panda uses something in the play to teach a story. They are dancing and the girl wants to be a professional ballerina in one or two days.

In the back, Jon has a page he's talking about great teachers. There are times in life we wobble and fall and then right ourselves in a new direction. A great teacher seizes that moment and uses it to help propel the student in a new direction. I love it. Great book. I'm a fan.
