A magical and uplifting story about acceptance and belonging from CBeebies presenter Ben Cajee
In a world where you're either a Panda or a Badger, Pablo - a Panda-Badger - breaks all the rules. However, being different doesn't make Pablo feel lucky - it just makes him feel sad. One day, there's a glow in the distance - a glow that changes everything - and soon Pablo has a chance to save the day in a way that neither a Badger nor a Panda could . . .
This debut story from CBeebies presenter Ben Cajee is an affirming and empowering tale about appreciating your own uniqueness and the joy that comes from embracing diversity of all kinds.
