Bookroo's summary

In the heart of the jungle, Tarzan, raised by apes, faces a life-altering choice. When humans, including the spirited Jane and her father, enter his world, Tarzan is torn between his beloved ape family and the allure of human connection. As he grapples with his identity and destiny, Tarzan must decide where he truly belongs. Will he embrace his human heritage or remain in the wild with the only family he's ever known? Adventure, love, and self-discovery await in this timeless tale.

From the publisher

Deep in the jungle, a baby, alone and crying, is discovered by a kindly ape named Kala. Kala opens her heart to the orphaned boy and, naming him Tarzan, decides to raise him as her own son. As he grows, Tarzan loves his ape family, but wonders why he is so different from them. At last, humans enter his jungle paradise and Tarzan meets the adventurous Jane, her father, Professor Porter, and the wily hunter Clayton. Now, torn between the world of humans and the only family he has ever known, Tarzan must discover where his destiny lies.
