Summary: Can I give it 6 stars out of 5? 600? 6 million? Little Beauty is absolutely perfect. I really don't know how it's possible for a picture book, just about a friendship between a gorilla and a kitten, to be this good. Buy it. Read it. Love it. Anthony Browne was kind enough to be interviewed by Bookbag. From my range, no favourites.I love them all, for different reasons.From outside of our range, same – no favourites, as long as they have been made with integrity.I would also thoroughly recommend to invest in a good set of wine glasses (Riedel for example).Getting the right glass for the variety makes a huge difference.

The emotions experienced by the Gorilla are something that all children will have experienced at some part in their lives, making this book something that they will be able to relate to. This could also make their interpretations of the emotions shown through the illustrations even better. The story line itself can be a starting point for discussion about loneliness, friendship, and kindness, potentially supporting PSHE topics. Throughout the story the gorilla experiences a range of emotions; sadness, happiness, anger, all of which are conveyed by the expressions on the gorilla’s face.A very special gorilla with the ability to use sign language indicates to his human keepers that he wants a friend. After some thought, they provide him with a little kitten named Beauty, and a wonderful cross-species friendship is born. Gorilla and cat do everything together, becoming boon companions. But will they be separated when the gorilla loses his temper? Or will Beauty find a way to make things right...?
