Nail Gaiman's latest children's story, Chu's Day, is about a little panda with a big sneeze. The book was illustrated by Adam Rex and will arrive in stores in January, 2013. Gaiman says he was inspired by a trip to China where a baby panda sat on his lap.
Gaiman says bad things happen when Chu sneezes. He says, "Extraordinary, impossible, enormous things happen."
