The birth of a new baby gorilla is exciting! But what happens when everything doesn't go exactly as planned?

Nadiri, a western lowland gorilla living at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo, was herself born in a zoo, and after her mother rejected her, she was hand-raised by zookeepers. When she had a baby late in 2015, she wasn't sure how to be a mother. But her baby needed her--gorilla babies learn how to be gorillas when they're raised by gorillas.

The dedicated zoo staff worked tirelessly to care for the baby and find innovative ways for Nadiri to connect with her baby. Follow along as Nadiri and her caretakers learn from one another--and from Nadiri's adorable gorilla baby, Yola--in this heartwarming true story.
