About the Book The One and Only Ivan
The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate is a heartwarming novel inspired by the true story of a silverback gorilla named Ivan. The story is narrated from Ivan’s perspective, offering a unique and touching insight into the life of animals in captivity.
Ivan lives in a shopping mall, where he spends his days drawing and observing the world around him. His companions include Stella, an elderly elephant, and Bob, a stray dog. The arrival of a baby elephant named Ruby brings significant changes to their lives. Ivan promises Stella, before she passes away, that he will find a better life for Ruby. This promise sets Ivan on a journey of self-discovery and courage, as he uses his artistic talents to communicate Ruby’s plight to the outside world.
The novel explores themes of friendship, freedom, and the power of imagination, highlighting the importance of empathy and the need for better treatment of animals.
