Reviews for Gibbon Finds A Friend
Anna Grob's new book, Gibbon Finds a Friend, is an enlightening narrative that exposes the very real threats that much of the world's wildlife faces. Not only does she expose the consequences of capturing animals for the pet trade, she also reveals the devastation the Palm Oil industry is causing. Along with these realities she weaves in a variety of both Gibbon and Orangutan behaviors, as well as how circumstances can create some unique friendships in the Animal Kingdom. Anna also touches on the positive impact researchers can have on wildlife and the environment.
-Karen Caster, Primate Keeper at the Little Rock Zoo and Nominee for the Gibbon Behavioral Advisory Group
Anna Grob's latest book, Gibbon Finds A Friend, is a wonderful story about friendship between two great apes. More importantly, the story touches on two very important problems affecting apes and monkeys, The Pet Trade and the Palm Oil Crisis. Even with the reality of these problems, the story shows care and concern from other animals and humans towards "Gibbon". Anna's stories are enjoyed by students everywhere, and they will enjoy this one as well!

Gibbon Finds A Friend is absolutely brilliant! - Robert M.
So heartwarming and educational. This one will be another winner for sure. -Martha
Gibbon Finds A Friend is a very cute and enjoyable story. Not only does it explain about animal behavior, but it also teaches everyday life. A child needs to listen to their mother and stay close so they don't get lost. And they will understand this from the character's experience. -Nikki K.
Here is a quick book trailer for Gibbon Finds A Friend. It is the very first trailer I have ever done.
I am still working on improvements, but it's fun to watch. :)
