Description

Kong will find himself the center of an charming and enthralling children’s book by New York Times’ author Kiki Thorpe, with illustrations by Nidhi Chanani (Pashmina; I will be fierce). Young fans will be able to follow along as the mighty Titan and his new pal spend a day of fun and adventure exploring the many wonders of Skull Island—proving that friendships come in many sizes and no matter how different we are, no one is too big or small to find a true friend.

Plot

Jia tells of her unusual friendship with King Kong, the Titan ruler of Skull Island. On the beach, Kong builds Jia a huge sand castle and creates a pool by cupping his hands together. Further inland, they explore the woods, watch clouds, and try to play hide-and-seek, though Kong's footprints make him easy to find. Kong uproots a tree trying to mimic Jia's flower-picking, and she convinces him to replant it. As the day ends, they try seeing the world from each other's perspective: Kong lying in a field watching butterflies, Jia sitting on his head watching the sunset.
