In a cool, misty rain forest, a huge father gorilla is wrestling, cuddling, and playing with his tiny sons and daughters. The giant ape is affectionate and gentle with his young, but if a predator or intruder enters the family’s territory, the powerful father gorilla is ready to defend his females and babies. In this book, the carefully levelled text and beautiful photographs introduce young animal lovers to a gorilla family and the important role of its leader—the silverback.
Ruth Owen has written more than 400 children's books. She writes on many subjects but her favourite topics are science and nature to research and make accessible for young readers.
