Jackson is not an imaginary friend kind of guy. Katherine Applegate tugs at your heart-strings and brings a little wonder into your world. It is heart-warming story about family and friendships, that will make you want to keep hugging the main character and wanting to hang out with Crenshaw. But is an imaginary friend enough to save this family from losing everything?Ĭrenshaw, like Katherine Applegate’s previous book The One and Only Ivan, is one of those books that I just want to carry around everywhere and give to everyone.
He has come back into Jackson’s life to help him. He’s large, he’s outspoken, and he’s imaginary. His parents, his little sister, and their dog may have to live in their minivan. Jackson and his family have fallen on hard times. I’m sure you’ll wish you had a friend like Crenshaw once you’ve read this wonderful book too. The book that most makes me wish for an imaginary friend Katherine Applegate’s latest book, Crenshaw. I don’t remember having an imaginary friend as a kid but reading these books make me wish I had. There have been a few books published recently about imaginary friends. It was a good time to have a friend, even if he was imaginary.’ He came into my life just when I needed him to. ‘In any case, Crenshaw had excellent timing. Whether you have read The One and Only Ivan or not, you will fall in love with Katherine Applegate’s The One and Only Bob. Bob made me laugh and made my heart ache but his story left me smiling all day long. I read this book in a couple of sittings because I just wanted to stay with these characters. A storm is brewing, a hurricane that will change life for Bob and his friends and test Bob’s strength and courage.
We hear about Bob’s life before meeting Ivan and what life is like now that Ivan and Ruby have been rehomed with others like them. In The One and Only Bob we get a story from Bob’s point of view (the feisty little dog that became Ivan’s friend at the Exit 8 Mall). Katherine Applegate makes you fall in love with her characters from the first page and you care about everything that happens to them. Like The One and Only Ivan this is a beautifully written story in verse that will always have a place in your heart. Th One and Only Bob is the stunning sequel to Katherine Applegate’s The One and Only Ivan.
