I was devastated to find out earlier this evening from my friend Mr. Schu that Ivan the gorilla passed away today. It is especially sad for me because my husband and I are on vacation in Florida right now and were considering stopping at Zoo Atlanta to see him on our way home to Michigan.
If you have not read The One and Only Ivan yet, I highly encourage you to do so. It rivals Charlotte's Web when it comes to children's literature that will stand the test of time.
Rest in peace Ivan. You will be dearly missed and your memory will live on in your story.
