Iván es un gorila pero, como él mismo aclara al presentarse, la cosa no es tan sencilla. Vive en un centro comercial y está acostumbrado a las funciones diarias en «sus dominios» (así llama a su reducido espacio hecho de cemento y cristal). Tiene buenos amigos, como la elefanta Stella y el perro Bob, y además es un artista: sus dibujos se venden bien entre el público. Todo cambia cuando el centro incorpora al espectáculo a Ruby, un bebé elefante. Iván se da cuenta de que esa no es la vida que deberían llevar ni él ni sus compañeros. Y es que es un gorila con las ideas muy claras: «Los humanos derrochan palabras. Las lanzan como cáscaras de plátano y las dejan ahí para que se pudran. Cualquiera sabe que la mejor parte del plátano es la piel». Una historia tierna e inolvidable sobre el valor de la amistad y el respeto a los animales.

Bob, un perro rebelde pero de gran corazón, deberá enfrentarse a sus peores temores y emprender un peligroso viaje para recuperar a su hermana perdida. Con la amenaza de un inminente huracán, Bob habrá de apoyarse en sus mejores amigos —Iván y Ruby—, hallar el coraje que no sabía que tenía y aprender el verdadero significado de la amistad y la familia.

The thrilling conclusion to the epic middle grade fantasy trilogy from Katherine Applegate, the New York Times bestselling and Newbery Award-winning author of The One and Only Ivan (now a major motion picture!), The One and Only Bob, Wishtree, and Crenshaw! In the beginning, Byx's original quest was to discover if there were more of her kind, or if she was destined to become an endling--the last dairne alive. She did indeed find more dairnes, and along the way she also created allies among other creatures in her world, including humans, felivets, raptidons, and wobbyks. But Byx and her new friends soon learned that it wasn't just dairnes in jeopardy of extinction, but that everyone was at risk. With the world in unprecedented danger, Byx must rally creatures of all kinds to lead a revolution. Katherine Applegate's Endling series has so far earned a collective five starred reviews, and each of the prior books has debuted on the New York Times bestseller list. She once again delivers an action-packed middle grade fantasy with a unique setting, enthralling characters, and gripping adventure that is perfect for fans of Rick Riordan, Brian Jacques, and Tui T. Sutherland.
