Hey, friends!
What about a story in which the main character is a gorilla? I'm going to review The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate.
Ivan is a mighty, gentle silverback gorilla who lives in The Big Top Mall with his friends Stella the elephant Bob the stray dog and Julie, a young girl. Although he was born in the wild, he can't remember anything about his life in the jungle.
When new baby elephant Ruby enters his life, everything changes. With the help of Stella and Bob, he sees his old home through new eyes and realizes that he has to stop Ruby from becoming just like them.
Using his artistic skills, Ivan hatches a plan to get to freedom. A journey of courage, bravery and compassion follows.
The question is, will he succeed?
And can Ivan finally become the mighty silverback he was always meant to be?
Katherine Applegate is the author of Home of the Brave and the Animorphs series. Inspired by a true story, the real Ivan is just like the book Ivan.
This story is for ages 8 and above.
The book is very sweet and also very funny since it is narrated by Ivan himself.
This book has also won a Newberry Award in 2013.
Animal lovers will really cherish this story and I honestly love it a lot!
