Panda fever has taken over! Tian Tian and Yang Guang will be boarding their special aircraft tomorrow, accompanied by their keepers – both from China and the new head keeper in Edinburgh. Iain Valentine, consultant on our new book, will also be travelling with the panda party. See the Panda Express facebook page for photos & updates.

Edinburgh Zoo's countdown clock is ticking away on their homepage, and tickets can be booked to visit the new arrivals at the same link. You can play Panda Pairs there, too, to help the celebrated arrivals to find new friends.

Panda: Back from the Brink is available at a special price of £20 directly from the zoo. All sales of the book support the panda fund, but copies bought directly from them will contribute more by eliminating the middleman.

Thanks to all who have been buying the book this week since its launch: we're very happy to say that the book has been Edinburgh Zoo's bestselling item online! The amazing photographs by Zhou Mengqi are irresistible.
