Mesha meets author Kate Applegate

I read The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate. The book was about a gorilla named Ivan who lives in the Exit 8 Big Top Mall. I saw Katherine Applegate and she gave a whole presentation about this book. I liked seeing Katherine Applegate because she was interesting. Katherine Applegate showed us a video about different gorillas bonding together. She also showed us a video abo0ut a kid who fell into the gorilla’s cage which showed that silver back gorillas can be gentle. Katherine got the idea for the book from a magazine article about Ivan the silver back gorilla.
