Red Panda’s sweet tooth puts him in a sticky situation in this scrumptious tale of friendship and fairness.

Red Panda is selling homemade candy apples. They are very sticky and quite delicious. So delicious, in fact, that Red Panda can’t help but feel a little reluctant to let them go. Like most preschoolers, he would rather eat treats than sell them.
He munches one, then another, and sets aside a third for later. What will happen when there’s only one apple left to sell, but two friends waiting to buy? The lovable, friendly characters from Hedgehog’s Magic Tricks are just the right size to discover that sometimes the best treats are those shared with friends.

What reviewers said

Delightful. ... The spot illustrations and full spreads are done in pencil and digital media, featuring warm-hued and inviting creatures. A sweet addition.
School Library Journal
Although red pandas and bushbabies are likely to be new to most North American children, they likely won’t care, as details in the illustrations flavor the story. Reddish crumbs are stuck on whiskers, and animal friends are dressed in clothing, with the white mouse in a pink tutu and Red Panda in red plaid pants.
Kirkus Reviews
A sweet twist on the standard lemonade stand.
