Good Night, Gorilla meets The Dot in this humorous and philosophical tale of how art can make anything possible. There is a big cage in the city park. Inside there is a great gorilla. Soon, people discover the gorilla's talent for painting. But no one expects just how that talent will set the gorilla free. This is both the simple story of a clever escape artist and a fascinating romp through important ideas about art, freedom, and animals in captivity. With a bold color palette and cool retro-yet-modern style, Vera Gereke’s impressive picture book debut will delight every picture book reader with one of its many layers.
