Best book of its kind! August 26, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If your 3-9 year old ever had an interest in orangutans, or even just monkeys in general, this is the book for them! My three-year-old loves it and asks for it every night before bed. The story is very dramatic (the rescue of a baby orangutan) the animal facts are a lot of fun, and almost every page has fantastic pictures blended into realistic illustrated backgrounds. There's so much to look at and the bright colors are amazing! Definitely the best children's book on orangutans I've ever seen!
