All fans of THE ONE AND ONLY IVAN should run, not walk, to your nearest library or bookstore (don't forget to social distance, though) to get a copy of this amazing sequel. Bob is a character all dog owners will love. Getting into his head will help dog owners the world over better understand their own cherished pets.
Bob is now living with Julia and George. He feels lucky that he still gets to visit his good friends Ivan and Ruby at their new home, too. The mall is closed and life is pretty close to perfect.
Bob shares his dog-thoughts in crystal clear detail, and he has many. He knows the best snacks, the best blanket for bed boogies, the dreaded tug-of-war string, and the horrors of obedience school. Mack's dog Snickers is still annoying, and new characters like Nutwit add new annoyances for poor Bob.
Julia and George take a break from preparations for the forecasted hurricane to drop by the park to see Ivan and Ruby. Bob loves catching up with Ivan, and Ruby loves entertaining her Uncle Bob. Even though some of the animals at the park don't appreciate Bob's visits, and frankly, a few of them terrify Bob, it is worth it if Bob gets to see his friends.
The weather begins to worsen and just as Bob heads off to find Julia, a tornado rips through the park. Bob sails through the air for a few frightening moments of flight before he lands in the giraffe enclosure. After recovering from a knock on the head, Bob realizes he is surrounded by complete destruction. He races to the gorilla enclosure where he finds Ivan crushed beneath the collapsed structure.
Rescuers immediately respond and there are tense moments before Bob sees his buddy emerge from the debris relatively unharmed. Now the race is on to find Ruby and Julia and find a safe place to wait out the storm. The challenges will be many as danger threatens at every turn.
THE ONE AND ONLY BOB is filled with excitement and suspense as Bob learns about courage and love for his ever-changing family. This anticipated sequel does not disappoint.
