You seriously would have to have a heart of stone not to be moved by this book. It is the sweet true story of the relationship between KoKo the gorilla and a little kitten she named All-Ball. The tenderness and humanity displayed by this amazing gorilla will amaze you.
I first read this book when I was about eight years old. Its tenderness touched me, changing my perception of the power of a book forever.
