I bought this for my nine year old son, who is a big fan of the film of King Kong, and he was riveted.

with picture of crowned King Kong by Anthony Browne, the illustrator who has filled this exciting book with full-color striking pictures, simulated light brown Japan pager endpapers, 92 pages. Además en el personaje femenino se plasma el síndrome de cenicienta, ya que por una parte Kong buscaba cuidar a Ann y por otra parte su prometido salía siempre en su rescate.Up ahead in a jungle clearing, Kong places Ann in a high cleft of a dead upright tree, then goes back and confronts his pursuers as they are walking along the top of an enormous fallen tree trunk over a deep ravine.

But his collaborator and subsequently co-director and producer of the film, not only did so but it is more than likely a relation of his, Richard Merrion Cooper who wrote the text of this book to accompany Anthony Browne's superb illustrations. This is maybe the 10th time I’ve reread this book, I used to read it over and over again when I was younger and I remembered that I still had it the other day and decided to read it again.
