CHILDREN ADORE THIS BOOK!

Jasper Tomkins does it again. He has written a provokative, imaginative, colourful tale about a child and his friend, an octopus. Set in Seattle, Jasper has painted the ferries, mountains and Puget Sound in rich, vibrant colours. The book expresses the wonder and delight of nature -- all so necessary for a child to learn. Clever, whimsical and funny. A GREAT BOOK FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS. A wonderful gift!
