Ivan's home in the shopping mall.
In our opinion, we think Ivan:The Remarkable True Story of the Shopping Mall Gorilla is a really good book. To start with, this book had lots of emotion in it. At some points in the book you are sad and at other times happy. Another reason is the book had amazing illustrations. You can tell what is happening by looking at the detailed illustrations. Finally, the author used descriptive language. For example, the author wrote, “In leafy calm and gentle arms a gorilla’s life began.” As you can see, Ivan:The Remarkable True Story of the Shopping Mall Gorilla, is a great book that we think you should read.
