In the Democratic Republic of Congo Bobo and
Irma are having a normal day when the Black Mamba and soldiers come. Bobo was
in the jungle and he sees the soldiers take a baby gorilla. When Bobo and Irma
find out that the soldiers have taken the gorilla to their camps they are
furious and set off on an adventure to save the baby gorilla. Bobo and Irma go
on a quest to try and save the baby gorilla they run into many challenges on
the way and run into menacing characters along the way such as Black Mamba and Rat.
If I lived in the time and place that they did, I would for
sure want Bobo and Irma to be my friends. I could trust them and always rely on
them to come help me at any time they would risk their life for any living
soul. I know I would have great fun with them and play with them all the time.
I wish they made a movie out of this book it would be a great movie with all
the detail and action. This book gave me some heartache too, because they live
in a country with lots of fighting.
