Baby-PreK 20 pages Tricycle Press October 2010 Board book    

Small and charming, the board book Busy Gorillas exposes readers to the activities engaged in by gorillas as they move through their day. Something about the book’s presentation kept me smiling from the moment I saw the whimsical photograph on its cover until I reached the last endearing picture on the back cover.

The few words accompanying each picture are simple enough to identify the action that each crisp photograph is intended to illustrate, whether it be the sharp vision of a gorilla frowning or the fuzzy shot of the animal swinging from tree to tree.

Something about gorillas and the way they are showcased in this book—whether laughing, dashing, clinging, or swinging—makes this book one destined to be a favorite among little ones who will want to view the pictures and hear the narration over and over and over again.
