This video is part of the 2024 Giant Ape-ril reading+ event

*Theme*
King Kong and giant monsters in general, in books, comics, movies, games...
If it's large and breaks things it qualifies.

*Prompts*
Loosely for the whole month rather than week by week:
The original King Kong novelisation by Edgar Wallace et al.
King Kong sequels, novelisations of later films, stories featuring Kong himself
Kong pastiches ie other giant apes wreaking havoc
Non-fiction about the movie or people involved such as Fay Wray
Wider reading in the family of giant monsters
