When they arrive, the two kids are delighted by the rides, the sideshow, the interesting displays, and the great food booths.

The kids are reluctant to disobey the sign, but the boy seems really nice.

Ivan is an easygoing gorilla. Living at the Exit 8 Big Top Mall and Video Arcade, he has grown accustomed to humans watching him through the glass walls of his domain. He rarely misses his life in the jungle. In fact, he hardly ever thinks about it at all. Instead, Ivan thinks about TV shows he's seen and about his friends Stella, an elderly elephant, and Bob, a stray dog. But mostly Ivan thinks about art and how to capture the taste of a mango or the sound of leaves with color and a well-placed line.

Quick Hitting Adventure
It's rare to hear an author who can perform her own work, and Octavia Spencer is one of those extraordinary writers who can. Octavia's range of characters is impressive, their many quirks and personalities come to life through her voice. The story is a quick, fun ride that readers and listeners of the genre will like. The characters are empowering, their struggles to be taken seriously will resonate with anyone who has been, will be, or is currently in the middle grades.

My 8-year old loved it
My 8-year old thought that the story was slow in the beginning but when things picked up it got really exciting. She says it’s a great read for girl who don’t want to read about damsels in distress.
We listened to the book in the car and I have to say I zoned out occasionally while it kept my daughter engaged. I loved the diversity of the characters and themes of friendship never get old.

my daughter's say this is the best book ever!
it's amazing to listen to a middle grade fiction book as an adult and be immediately sucked into the story. The characters feel incredibly real and it very much reminds me of the Nancy Drew books that I couldn't get enough of it as a child. Octavia Spencer is the narrator is second to none. I highly recommend this if you love audio books or if you're trying to introduce your kids to audio books. They won't be able to get enough.
