During a visit to the ocean, a curious little girl searching for a seashell discovers an octopus instead. Their encounter leads to an afternoon of play and discovery, revealing that while octopuses have some similarities with us, they also have unique traits. What About an Octopus?: A Fact-Filled Underwater Adventure (Owlkids $21.95) for ages 3-7, illustrated by Dawn Lo, humorously notes that instead of shaking an octopus’s hand, a friendly wave is more appropriate and explains that octopuses have eight arms and can regrow lost ones. Fun sidebars offer intriguing facts about octopuses, and Lo’s vibrant, lively illustrations bring the underwater adventure to life, blending charm with educational content. 9781771475716
