It's time for a really nice story about family, growing up, and how to love one another. Gorilla is launched into space; his capsule goes haywire; he's blasted off course and crash lands on a beach. He's able to get into his life raft and make it to shore safely. Not knowing what happened, he's scared and all alone. Soon he's found by Derick and Sally Shaw, who take him to their home on Gannet Island. When they get to the Shaw's house, everybody, including Gorilla, is in for a very big surprise.
