When Annabel advertises her services as an actress and gets a call, her dreams are answered--almost. The trouble is, the role is for a gorilla, she hasn't got a costume, her gig is a five-year-old's birthday party, and her nemesis is out to thwart her. Fortunately, her acting skills shine through and save the day in this comical, lighthearted chapter book illustrated with numerous drawings.
