About the Author

Katherine Applegate’s many books include the Roscoe Riley Rules chapter book series, the picture book The Buffalo Storm, and the award-winning novel Home of the Brave. With her husband, Michael Grant, she wrote the hugely popular series Animorphs, which has sold more than 35 million copies worldwide.

Katherine was inspired to write The One and Only Ivan after reading about the true story of a captive gorilla known as Ivan, the Shopping Mall Gorilla. The real Ivan lived alone in a tiny cage for twenty-seven years at a shopping mall before being moved to Zoo Atlanta after a public outcry. He is now a beloved celebrity at the zoo, which houses the nation’s largest collection of western lowland gorillas. Ivan is well known for his paintings, which he “signs” with a thumb-print.

I bought several begining chapter books for my 6 year old, hoping a series would click with him and he want to read more. That's just what happened with Roscoe Riley. After book 1, he was hooked. They are really cute stories. Roscoe gets himself into trouble with his mischievousness, but he's a good kid. My sons laughs out loud when reading these books. And he loves that they always follow the same format, chapter one always starts out with Roscoe in time out. Definitley would recommend these books for a first or second grader.
