Abnormal Orangutan

A laugh-out-loud picture book that also exhibits the beauty of being different (maybe even a little odd), The Abnormal Orangutan features Boon, a big-bellied orangutan that stands out in a crowd of strong gorillas with impressive monkey muscles and ooh la laaa abs.

Do you know what abnormal means? Neither does Boon! He thinks he is the same as every other gorilla in the jungle. But it's obvious to the gorillas that he is the opposite of them in absolutely every way. When the gorillas are working out to grow their monkey muscles, Boon is filling his day with silliness and banana after banana after banana - did we mention banana?

Yet, when the competition to become Gorilla of the Year rolls around, Boon is set on competing and showing off his monkey strength! The gorillas are shocked to see Boon among the crowd of competitors. They can't help but laugh as he tries to compete and fails ridiculously. It will take an ounce of courage and a lot of silliness to make it to the BOO-YAH top, but if anyone can do it - it's Boon.

Boon is the character that will have children laughing and smiling. His humorous ways are odd but wholesome. He reminds us that strength looks different for everyone. So, grab a banana and join Boon as he tries to prove his strength HIS WAY!
