Digby David wants a pet, but not just any pet ­ it has to be TWICE as big as Reuben's guinea pig and even better than Lily Jean's cat. Digby David's Daddy does what he's told, and soon Digby has a guinea pig, which he loves with all his heart... for half a day. Digby demands bigger and better, Daddy's hair gets greyer and greyer, and when Digby's dog gets boring too, he insists Daddy buy him a gorilla!A hilarious tale with a "be careful what you wish for" message, especially if you wish for a gorilla and don't look after it properly.
