Will Chee-Kee ever fit in?

The Loo family has traveled very far to start a new life. For little Chee-Kee Loo, everything is strange–he looks and feels so different. But when some bears find themselves in a jam, Chee-Kee might be just the right panda to save the day.

In this heartfelt and lovable story, meet Chee-Kee the panda, a one-of-a-kind in all the best ways.

  • "Rim, who based this fable on her parents' experience immigrating to the U.S. from South Korea, makes Chee-Kee's isolation touching and profound."
    Publishers Weekly
  • "[Rim] creates a whimsical world where bears in every shape, color and size live happily together. A cute take on the immigrant experience that will appeal to young readers who themselves feel different."
    Kirkus Reviews
  • "A simple, gentle selection that works as a good conversation starter to nurture empathy and encourage inclusion and a sense of community."
    School Library Journal
