The Gibbon's Swing

High in a magical rainforest, a young gibbon named Gibby spends her mornings swinging joyfully through the branches, her long arms carrying her far ahead of her small body. One day she meets Lumi, a slow loris with enormous round eyes and short, stubby legs, who sadly wishes he could travel through the treetops the way she does. Gibby's heart goes out to him, and she promises to find a way for her new friend to move high among the trees too.

Together they seek advice from Mama Fig, a wise old orangutan who suggests building a treetop trail with sturdy branches and wide platforms where Lumi can rest. With help from Pip the hummingbird, who scouts the best route, and many other forest animals who offer twigs, ideas and resting places, Gibby and Lumi set to work tying vines and weaving cozy spots into the canopy. This gentle tale by Aysel Banu YAVUZAL follows a small gibbon who turns kindness into action, and it can be read on Masal İzle.
