    This book is amazing. I like that this author makes it make you want to read the book more. I am a big fan of “the one and only Ivan” it is such a good book I cannot wait till “the one and only family” comes out. I say keep writing and if bob were to read this he would be like “wow” in his mind.
  • Read now!!🤩

    ⚠️ DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVE NOT FINISHED THE BOOK ok so in the end when you are talking about the after math of it you skipped every thing before that happened I just think the end went to fast In the very end the bark I think it was boss but it is unclear so if I could get a clarification that would be nice but it’s ok if you don’t because I don’t want to be to pushy Thank u for your time and reading to the end reminder I DON’T want to be pushy
