The Plucky Orangutan

The Plucky Orangutan –

This charming tale by Catherine Veitch tells the story of Oma the orangutan, who lives in the rainforests of Borneo. Oma always tries to be the best at all she does, and accepts any challenge she’s set. With the help of her friends, Oma grows to realise that she doesn’t have to be the best at everything, and that it’s her plucky spirit that’s more important.
