Octopus Soup

(4) K-3 In this wordless story, a young octopus seeks adventure. Finding himself in the clutches of a determined (walrus) chef, he must make his way home. Some of the cartoon-panel illustrations are a little hard to read, but the action is mostly clear. Mayer's illustrations feature personified animals out to get the little green octopus on land, and undersea creatures welcoming him back.
