Description: Product Description
Hannah loves gorillas but has never seen one. Her father's too busy to take her to the zoo - or for anything else come to that. For her birthday, Hannah asks her father for a gorilla - but is disappointed when she discovers that the gorilla she's got is just a toy one. But then something extraordinary happens, the toy turns into a real gorilla.


Amazon Review
Hannah's father never seems to have time for her and so she is often left alone and lonely. She loves gorillas and longs for one for her birthday. On the night before her birthday she wakes up to find a parcel, containing a toy gorilla, by her bed. Disappointed she goes back to sleep. Later that night though, something magical happens--a real gorilla appears and takes her on a magical journey.

This book won Anthony Browne both the Kate Greenaway Medal and the Kurt Maschler Award and has become a classic picture book to be enjoyed on many levels by children of all ages. --Philippa Reece
