Join a little girl as she discovers the hidden world of her new octopus friend in this stunning wordless picture book by critically acclaimed author-illustrator Guojing.
A little girl goes to the beach with her mother, never expecting the day full of magic and wonder that is ahead of her. When she scoops up a tiny octopus in her small, clear container, and they see each other eye to eye, there’s a spark between them! But a little octopus cannot be happy for long in a container. So the girl sets out to discover what the octopus needs. And that’s when something truly magical happens! Soon, the little girl is on an underwater adventure with her new octopus friend, where she discovers the joy and beauty of the octopus’s world and learns how she can help take care of the ocean in her own way.

Four Point Five Stars
Beautiful, profound story. The story had no words, but the illustrations are beautiful and tell the story of a little girl who goes to a beach and there she finds a magical octopus. What starts as a simple journey to find a home for the octopus, turns into something deep as the little girl learns about how plastic (and other human activities) affect marine life. Beautiful book both for adults and older kids.
