the one and only ivan ( First paperback Scholastic Edition 015)

I borrowed the digital copy from my library, as an adult who loves gorillas. To my surprise this book instantly captured my heart & soul. I knew my grandkids had to have a copy of this for their own; to hold, read, & fall asleep holding onto! Then, to my surprise, I found it is a series & of course decided they need each book in the series. I started with book 1 for 2 of my readers. With 7 grandkids I'm buying them a few at a time. The fact that this is based on the true story of a shopping mall gorilla makes the book even more unique. Love this!

Kids will love the book, while parents will like the message, great book..

This book was awesome. I loved the writing style and all of the characters. I can't believe it's based on a true story.
