THE SECRET OF CLOUD MOUNTAIN

Ten-year-old Zor is shocked to find a baby abandoned on Cloud Mountain. She doesn’t look like any other gorilla Zor has ever seen. Fearing for her safety, Zor brings her home. When no one on Cloud Mountain steps up to claim her, Zor’s parents adopt her and raise her as their daughter. Zor names her Lily.

As the years go by, baby Lily grows into a lovely—though unusual-looking—young gorilla. Meanwhile, her brother Zor is getting older too, and experiencing love for the first time. But Zor is an Awa gorilla, and his crush is a member of the Poa tribe, which is strictly forbidden.

A timeless story about growing up, unlikely friendships, young love, and the struggles and triumphs of being true to yourself. The Secret of Cloud Mountain is sure to delight readers of all ages.

"A magical, adventure-filled novel celebrating family, friendship, and the joy of discovering who you really are."
