Ivan now lives in a proper zoo along with his mate Kinyani and his friends Ruby and Bob. The gorilla habitat has recently been enlarged making room for some other gorillas and a huge surprise - Kinyani is pregnant.
Ivan never really thought about being a dad, but now it's all he thinks about. As the resident silverback, he is the protector of his new troop of gorillas, and that will soon include a little one of his own.
As the zoo vet and keepers carefully follow Kinyani's pregnancy, it is discovered that she is expecting twins. Ivan couldn't be more excited but also more nervous than ever.
Applegate weaves another wonderful tale as she describes Ivan's excitement and concerns and the reactions of all his friends. Ruby's helpful advice and Bob's annoying predictions give readers plenty of humor and thoughtfulness just like the other books before it. Ivan's fans will surely find this final book to be a perfect ending they will want to read and reread for years.
