About the book: It’s suppertime in the jungle, but Baby Gorilla refuses to eat anything Mama and Papa make for him—not banana chips with green guacamole or a piping-hot plate of plantain ravioli. He says no to a dish of bananas flambé and turns up his nose at banana soufflé! Step into the kitchen and laugh at dish after zany dish in this picture book adventure that is sure to make story times—and meal times—fun!
About the Author: Patrick Wensink is the author of Go Go Gorillas and Gorillas Go Bananas and is also the bestselling author of a bunch of boring books for grown-ups that have no pictures in them whatsoever! He lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife and son. Much like a certain baby gorilla, Patrick was a picky eater as a boy. His favorite way to have a banana is in a pancake. You can visit him online at www.patrickwensink.com.

Following 12-year old recently orphaned Joseph on his quest to get his only family back -his beloved horse Sarah- author Gemeinhart brings together race relations in the late 1800's, western lore and a clear-eyed pragmatism that, coupled with his signature action/adventure plot twists and a kindheartedness thread permeating the story, this wonderful, evocative and first rate middle grade title builds on his exceptional debut (The Honest Truth). This is an author that has clearly established himself as a must read for warm hearted, realistic adventures. - Maureen
