The One and Only Ivan
This book is about a silverback gorilla named Ivan. He was actually born in the forest but he was captured and was brought to live in a mall. He has his own space there. He has two animal friends an old elephant named Stella and a stray dog named Bob. He also befriends the janitor and his daughter Julia. It was Julia who gave Bob his name. Later a baby elephant, Ruby, is brought to the mall to attract attention. Stella makes Ivan promise that he would somehow get Ruby a better and safe life away from the mall. This book was written by Katherine Applegate. I really liked the book a lot. It was an amazing story.
