Celebrate thirty years of a classic picture book by one of today’s most celebrated author-illustrators! A special anniversary edition. Hannah loves gorillas and longs to see a real one. Unfortunately, her father is always too busy — or too tired — to take her to the zoo. But on the night before her birthday, something extraordinary happens and Hannah’s wish finally comes true. Anthony Browne’s classic story of a girl’s moonlit night of adventure, courtesy of a surprising and kindly friend, returns in a larger trim size with striking cover art by the artist for the book’s thirtieth anniversary.
Anthony Browne is a former British Children’s Laureate, a two-time winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal, and the first British winner of the Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration. He has written and illustrated more than forty books, including Gorilla, Little Beauty, and What If . . . ? Anthony Browne lives in Kent, England.
