I really didn't think this was gonna be a very interesting book but I am only on page 8 and it is actually really cool. The point of view is Ivan's and he has a lot to say about himself, us humans, where he stays, and more that I probably haven't read yet. Anyways Ivan describes himself as a now friendly gorilla he says he used to be wild but right now he still looks the part. With his "shy gaze, a gorilla's sly smile," he wears a snowy saddle of fur,(the uniform of a ( silverback ). He knows that he is mighty but he really just doesn't seem to think that all of the names people give him, they just don't or aren't him. Of course he is this big bad looking gorilla but really he is a friendly animal who is best friends with a little elephant.
