Summary
Hannah asks for a gorilla for her birthday, and her wish comes true in a special and unusual way
Amazon.com description: Product Description: FOR USE IN SCHOOLS AND LIBRARIES ONLY. Anthony Browne's incomparable artwork illuminates the deeply satisfying story of a lonely girl, a friendly gorilla, and their enchanted night out. Hannah spends all of her time reading gorilla books, watching gorilla TV shows, and drawing gorilla pictures. She has gorillas on her bedside lamp and even on her box of cereal. Hannah loves gorillas and longs to see a real one, but her father is always too busy - or too tired - to take her to the zoo. Then, on the night before her birthday, something extraordinary happens - and Hannah's wish comes gloriously true. 30th anniversary edition
