I am currently reading this book aloud to 4th graders at my school. They are loving that it is written from the point of view of a Gorilla - Ivan. The author really does a nice job!
I read this and did not think I was going to like it, but I loved it. It really made me think, and reminded me a lot of Charlotte's Web ! Give it a try, you will love it !
This book is really good for animal lovers. This book was about a gorilla living in a mall and a domain, Ivan tells about his life and goes through really sad moments.
The One And Only Ivan is about a gorilla who lives in a mall,he also is in a cage near other animals, and one animal he lives with is an old elephant.So life is simple,until a young elephant moves in. Ivan must find a way to take care of the baby elephant when the old elephant can't!
