Everything is better with a gorilla

Having small children underfoot can make even the simplest task complicated and/or maddening. But did you ever think that having a gorilla around could help bring much-needed balance and tranquility to your life?

Okay. Fair enough. Me neither-- until now.

 

Everything Is Better With a Gorilla is a fun book that explores just a few of the millions of activities that can be improved by the addition of a gorilla. From spelunking to grilling to conducting a surveillance operation, gorillas bring strength, patience, and ninja-like sandwich making skills to any endeavor.

Wait. You think I'm kidding, don't you? Nope. It's a real book, and it's even endorsed by Koko, the famous gorilla who learned sign language.

I'm not quite sure how to categorize it, though; it's written for adults, but my kids love the sweet pictures. It combines facts with humor in a way that will appeal to teens, a bachelor uncle, or a husband who needs something to read at the kitchen table. Maybe it would be best to say it's for adults who like to giggle. I think it would make a great "Thinking of you" or "Make a new mom smile" gift, along with a batch of homemade banana bread. Which would be even better if baked with the help of a talented gorilla friend.~Delilah
