Gavin the Gorilla and Snuffles

Image
Judgments and friendships make Gavin the Gorilla and Snuffles the perfect duo to team up and teach kids the meaning behind, ‘never judge a book by its cover.’  Society seems to revolve around judgments, and children tend to end up following these customs. With this book, parents can lightly inform kids of the cruelty behind being judgmental.
On one hand, we have the idea of snuffles, a seemingly cute looking dog, coming to a Gorillas rescue. And on the other hand, we have the concept of bullying and loneliness, and how they tie in with being judgmental.  Therefore, this book can help children on either side of the situation – teaching kids not to be judgmental, and further teaching judged children that they should always carry on being who they are, because their worth will be recognized sooner or later.
