More 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.

Katherine lives in California with her husband and two children.

secret "same" (oregon,siletz,usa) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Secret (Animorphs #9) (Paperback)

My thought of the secret is that is greatly written not over dramatic and it does not take along time to get into the action of the book it was good i am at the part where they are just about to turn into the termites in sneak into the yeerks loging camp to me my favroite charcter is tobias.This book is a good book to any one that likes the series it would also be good for anyone just beging to read but around the age of six.The suspense of the book is great they put in just enough not to much not to little.

5.0 out of 5 stars THe Funniest Cassie Book, August 25, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: The Secret (Animorphs #9) (Paperback)

Usually I don't like the Cassie books as much(except for #19)- but this one was great! From begining to end this one is great.

My only problem with it is that everything seemsto fall in to place perfectly sometimes with the Animorphs.
