Touch and feel about a little gorilla who grows into a big gorilla!

Little Gorilla is a favorite of mine. In this short story by Ruth Bornstein, we enter into the beloved life of "Little Gorilla." This book is a great way for young children to see how going through changes does not mean that you will be any less loved. "Little Gorilla" is loved by many members of his community, ranging from a hippo to a big boa-constrictor and more. This also shows the reader that other members in your community, even if they are completely different than you, can develop a loving and caring relationship for you that you can depend on. Overall, this is a sweet and simple story about Little Gorilla's birthday and how his community supports him as he grows up. ( )

This book is wonderful for many different reasons. The book has a very surprising ending that you must read to find out. It is a story about a little gorilla who is growing. The book would be good to read to children about growing up and continual growth. It also talks about birthdays. The book is overall great and can teach a lesson to children. ( )

Sweet book about how Little Gorilla is so loved by all in his community---even when he gets big. Conversation starter about family, neighborhoods, growing up--as well as animals, adjectives, birthdays and colors. Potential for discussion about opposites as well--big and little, old and young. ( )
