This title is intended for ages 3 to 7 years. This cheeky, bouncing, infectiously happy children's story about a big, strong, hairy gorilla living up to his image is a pleasure to read aloud. To the shock of the other animals, who ridicule him mercilessly, Gordon proudly walks around with his security blanket. Full of energy and tenderness, the story explores bullying and teasing as well as strength and acceptance through amusing songlike refrains and colourful images. |
