red panda

Thirteen-year-old Mei Lee loves her friends, school, and a boy band called 4 Town, but keeps those interests separate from her home life, where she faces pressure to live up to her mother's expectations. When she turns into a giant red panda one day, she learns that the females in her family have inherited the ability to transform, but that it can be taken away in a ceremony during the red moon. When Mei is denied permission to attend an upcoming 4 Town concert, she secretly uses her red panda form to raise money to buy tickets for her and her friends, resulting in a showdown between her and her mother.

In Turning Red, Mei Lee is a confident, dorky thirteen-year-old torn between staying her mother's dutiful daughter and the chaos of adolescence. And as if changes to her interests, relationships, and body weren't enough, whenever she gets too excited (which for a teenager is practically ALWAYS), she poofs into a giant red panda!.

But what hippo really needs... is a job where he can be himself"--Dust jacket.
