In the 1995 chapter book ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Rumble in the Jungle]]'', Big Ape City is said to have once been the largest city on Donkey Kong Island, and "the center of culture, entertainment and business". However, the city was gradually abandoned in favor of the surrounding caves, treetops and mountains. In the events of the book, [[Funky Kong]] flies over the city in his [[barrel plane]] with [[Diddy Kong]], who sees smoke rising among the ruins of the city, although Funky doesn't wish to "go looking for trouble". After taking Diddy Kong back to his [[DK's Tree House|treehouse]], Funky Kong flies over Big Ape City to pick up another passenger, although several [[Hogwash|flying pigs]] attack his plane and cause him to crash land. [[Donkey Kong]], Diddy Kong and [[Cranky Kong]] decide to cross the island on foot. They use a cave route within a snow-capped mountain in order to reach the city. | In the 1995 chapter book ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Rumble in the Jungle]]'', Big Ape City is said to have once been the largest city on Donkey Kong Island, and "the center of culture, entertainment and business".

Upon arrival, they find that the city has been taken over by [[Kremling]]s, who have re-established themselves following the destruction of their old factory in the [[Donkey Kong Country (novel)|previous novel]]. It is revealed that they are building a new, larger factory under the direction of [[King K. Rool]], who wants it completed by the end of the week. The Kongs are afraid of the amount of pollution that the factory is releasing. They overhear that Funky Kong is being held inside of the factory, and they proceed to overcome the city's "beefed up security" in order to help Funky escape, and to disable the city's security system. Within the factory, the Kongs overcome various different Kremlings, including [[Kritter]], [[Krusha]], a [[Klaptrap|Klap Trap]] and [[ | Upon arrival, they find that the city has been taken over by [[Kremling]]s, who have re-established themselves following the destruction of their old factory in the [[Donkey Kong Country (novel)|previous novel]].

After Funky repairs the engine of his barrel plane, the Kongs use it to escape the factory. Before leaving, Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong infiltrate the city's zeppelin, which is the "command ship" of King K. Rool. They plant the ship with time-delayed [[TNT Barrels]], before escaping the city in their barrel plane. From afar, the Kongs watch the ship fall onto the factory, destroying them both. Amused about their victory, the Kongs return to their treehouse. | ||
Within the novel, [[Cranky Kong]] states that when he was Donkey Kong's age, Big Ape City was on the verge of being abandoned, as it was already "decaying and dangerous". Cranky also states that he has many memories of battling "a short plumber named [[Mario]]" within the city, which suggests that Big Ape City was where the [[Donkey Kong (game)|''Donkey Kong'' arcade game]] takes place. | Within the novel, [[Cranky Kong]] states that when he was Donkey Kong's age, Big Ape City was on the verge of being abandoned, as it was already "decaying and dangerous".
