Mountain Gorillas in Danger serves as an excellent support for struggling readers in the 4th-5th grade. I am a 5th grade special education teacher and I read this book with my students. They loved it!! They then wrote letters to various organizations expressing their concern for mountain gorillas. The illustrations are colorful, appealing, and correlate well with the text. The content of the book is written in a simplistic manner, but is loaded with facts and statistics about mountain gorillas. It is clear from the text that the author cares deeply about the subject.
