Delightfully written
I remembered hearing about this octopus in the news stories and when I started searching out for books to read to my 3-5yr old group during library story time, I thought this might be a good one. It is written with the rhyming rhythm that is easy to read and that kids love so much and they get hooked in by the story. I love being able to show them the picture at the end of the book that is of the real life Inky! The preschoolers love this book and I enjoy reading it aloud to them.
