Description

Zoe is a young gorilla not unlike a human child. She sometimes feels as though she does not belong with her group of family and friends, she wishes she was more understood for who she is, and most importantly, she craves adventure! What Zoe doesn't realize is that although she feels like an outsider sometimes, her troop loves her very much and just wants her to be safe, but to Zoe, safe is boring. When she wanders too far while traveling with her troop one day, the panic begins to sink in for Zoe as well as her family, but thank goodness she finds a friendly pack of elephants that are more than willing to help her reunite with her troop. Along the way Zoe learns some valuable lessons, while unexpectedly teaching others some herself. Zoe, The Big Adventure of a Little Gorilla, will teach both children and adults about animals coexisting and all the things every creatures can offer and teach one another, but above all else it will teach empathy and compassion.A portion of proceeds from every Zoe book sold goes to the Mountain Gorillas' thrive by helping to provide habitat and safety.
