1 Tracks of a Panda by Nick Dowson, Illustrated by Yu Rong Scripted for Readers Theater by Karen Antikajian Narrator 1: Narrator 6: Narrator 2: Narrator 7: Narrator 3: Narrator 8: Narrator 4: Fact Announcer 1: Narrator 5: Fact Announcer 2: Have the Fact Announcers stand a little ways away from the narrators. The narrators should use storytelling voices while the Fact Announcers should sound more like news reporters. Have students use simple headbands to denote their parts. Narrator 1: This is a story of a Mother panda and her cub called Tracks of a Panda Narrator 2: written by Nick Dowson and illustrated by Yu Rong Narrator 3: High on a mist-wrapped mountain, cradled in a leafy nest, Narrator 4: Panda holds her newborn cub gently in her giant paw. Narrator 5: Small as a pinecone [hold up pinecone or show size with hands] Narrator 6: pink as a blob of wriggling sunset, Narrator 7: he sinks, squawking, into his mother s fur Narrator 8: until her warm milk fills his mouth. Panda cubs are born blind and almost furless. They are 900 times smaller than their mothers. Narrator 1: For days Panda stays with her cub in their hollow tree den. Narrator 2: But the need to feed herself grows stronger, Narrator 3: and one bright August morning she leaves him Narrator 4: and follows her old tracks to the patch of bamboo grass where she eats. There are many different kinds of bamboo,

2 but pandas usually choose to eat only a few kinds. Narrator 5: She rolls on her back in a soft bed of ferns and grabs a handful of bamboo. Narrator 6: Slowly her big black nose wrinkles: these leaves smell good and she is very hungry. Narrator 7: Before she goes back to cuddle and suckle her cub, Narrator 8: Panda strips ten stems bare. Pandas have very big black teeth to help them crush tough bamboo stems. Narrator 1: For seven weeks the cub s eyes stay shut. Narrator 2: He feeds and sleeps, cries and gurgles. Narrator 3: As he grows, around his ears and eyes, across his legs, and like a road of hairy ink on his back, Narrator 4: some of his fur darkens, like his mom s, into black. Narrator 5: One fall day, he crawls up Panda s chest onto her neck. Narrator 6: Something cold and wet tickles her nose, Narrator 7: and his eyes open for the first time Narrator 8: onto a world of falling snow. It takes four years for panda cubs to be as big as their mothers. Narrator 1: The cub grows fast through winter. Narrator 2: He climbs and plays on his mother, Narrator 3: but now he also takes his first steps Narrator 4: along the mountain tracks.

3 Narrator 5: But Panda has not eaten well for weeks. Narrator 6: Her bamboo patch is dying Narrator 7: Now that her cub is six months old and strong enough to travel, Narrator 8: she knows they must find a new home. Panda s black and white fur is good camouflage in winter. Narrator 1: Below her old territory, the path is steep. Narrator 2: Weak with hunger, Panda stumbles and bumps her cub into a deep drift of snow. Narrator 3: She goes to him and smells an unexpected buried meal there. Narrator 4: Snow flies as she scrapes. This deer meat is old but will give her strength. Pandas almost always eat bamboo, but they sometimes eat other things such as insects, fish, or meat. Narrator 5: After eating, Panda suckles her sleepy cub, then, thirsty, drinks from a stream. Narrator 6: A shadow slips through the trees. Closer it comes, its long tongue lolling. Narrator 7: Panda lifts her big dripping head. Narrator 8: Like knives, her long claws slash the air, and the wild dog growls and slinks away. When they need to defend their cubs, mother pandas are very fierce. Narrator 1: With danger in the forest, Panda needs a safe place to sleep: in a tree. Narrator 2: She hugs the fir s frosty trunk with both arms, and her strong claws and furry feet grip the bark. Narrator 3: Her cub clings to her shoulder as they clamber toward the clouds;

4 Narrator 4: Then he leaves her and scrambles to his own high perch. Like other bears, pandas are very good climbers. Narrator 5: When she wakes, Panda suckles her cub but still needs food for herself. Narrator 6: They move on. Narrator 7: Soon she sees a new mountain rising, Narrator 8: with bamboo on its slopes. Narrator 1: Cold water laps at her tired feet, Narrator 2: and she walks into a stream s dark pool. Narrator 3: Her paws touch bottom all the way, Narrator 4: but in the middle the cub has to swim. Narrator 5: He kicks hard with his feet, Narrator 6: and his paws turn to paddles as he pushes the water behind him. To move from place to place in the mountains, pandas need to be able to swim. Narrator 7: The new territory has plenty of food. Narrator 8: Panda won t go hungry now. Narrator 1: Her cub, too, begins to eat bamboo. Narrator 2: He grips a stem and, Narrator 3: copying his mother, Narrator 4: curls his sticky tongue around the leaves. Pandas have five fingers, plus a sixth one, more like a thumb, that helps them hold bamboo.

5 more like a thumb, that helps them hold bamboo. Narrator 5: Spring brings warm rain, Narrator 6: and juicy new shoots of bamboo poke up. Narrator 7: One day, mother and cub are feeding Narrator 8: When they hear axes ALL Ns: THUD Narrator 1: and branches ALL Ns: CRASH Narrator 1: nearby. Narrator 2: Panda stops chewing. Narrator 3: Villagers are chopping firewood. Narrator 4: If they move up the mountain, Narrator 5: she and her cub cannot stay. Narrator 6: Slowly she climbs up a deer path, her cub close behind... Mother pandas will not share territory with other pandas or people. Narrator 7: Clouds curl around their tracks as they go. Narrator 8: Their hunt for a new home is beginning again.
