Gorilla Mountain

A young mountain gorilla and his family are on the run from poachers. The animal thieves stand to make a lot of money by capturing the gorillas--dead or alive. Will the family be able to get away? And will they ever find safety in the forest again? This fascinating account of a young gorilla's life offers a glimpse into the dangers that many animals face in their own backyards. The Animal Storyseries uses a documentary approach to graphically demonstrate survival in the wild. Dazzling, on-the-scene photographs capture each animal's story. Fact files offer in-depth information about each animal's habitat. A glossary and map reveal additional information about each animal. An index is included. Each book in this new series from Waterbird Books will take a look at a day, year, or season in the life of a wild animal. Told from the perspective of an onlooker, the books capture the feel of a wildlife documentary. The reader is first introduced to a wild animal and its environment, and then follows the animal through its everyday life. The good, bad, funny, and sad are revealed as the reader tracks each animal and learns factual and unforgettable information about them. Stunning, full-color photographs highlight each story. A glossary and index are included. Supplements school curriculum in science.Hibbert, Adam is the author of 'Gorilla Mountain', published 2004 under ISBN 9781577688976 and ISBN 157768897X.
