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
Review
One of the best picture books for the over-threes I've seen in a long time. * Parents * Sad, joyous and full of surprises for the sharp-eyed...Browne asks his readers to think...His strong visual images are arresting, compulsive. * The Good Book Guide to Children's Books *

Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. This is a pristine and unread copy from the second printing of the first edition of a book in which the artist signed and drew a one-of-a-kind gorilla sketch on a blank page interior page during an event when I escorted him on one of his few events in American bookstores. The book has been stored in light-free archival conditions since then. Please see my attached photos. This is the most famous book by the award-winning author-illustrator. Signed by Illustrator(s).
