About this item

With new life comes infinite possibility, and as a gorilla family delights in their young child, they dream of everything their baby will encounter and who he will become. A companion to Matthew Cordell's stunning Wish, this picturebook picks up with a new animal family celebrating their little one as they imagine what the future holds. Praise for Wish "This deceptively simple picture book packs an emotional wallop. . . . Readers of all ages will appreciate the combined messages of affirmation, hope, and reassurance. " -BOOKLIST "Cordell's . . . intensely personal account of parents awaiting the arrival of a child bubbles over with anticipatory joy. " -Publishers Weekly
