This story is about a gorilla who lives in captivity with all her family. these are the gorillas names Kishina, Ozzie, Paki, Pojo, and last but not least Kinyani. The settting of the story is in a zoo kept in captivity. The main problem in the story is will Kishina and her family survive in the zoo ? What i think about the characters were ok to me. I liked there personality ,this book was also emotional. This book was also written 3rd person onmicient and has some strong words and sentences I recomend this book to people who are emotional.
