About the book: 2015 / One day, a beat-up car rushed to the Buttercup orphanage, where the nine-year-old girl Yunna lives. Who do you think was driving? Gorilla! She was going to choose an orphan for dinner - or so the children thought. Without hesitation, the gorilla took Yunna... But not for dinner, but for upbringing! Which of the orphanage children does not dream of finding a real home and loving parents. Every child wants more than anything to find a mother with kind eyes and a beautiful hairstyle. A mother who hugs you tenderly, worries about you and always consoles you. Yunna, who found herself in the gorilla’s den, also dreamed of such a mother. This book is about how difficult it is to accept parents as they are. This is not only a gift of fate and the fulfillment of a cherished desire, but also the appearance of something unknown and alien, an intervention in everyday life. And the two of them - the little girl and the seemingly scary Gorilla - have a lot to go through together before they find a family in each other. In 2011, “I Was Adopted by a Gorilla” was nominated for the prestigious German Children's Literature Prize.
