The Sinking of Captain Otter

32 pp. | Owlkids | October, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-77147-311-8 $17.95
(3) PS Illustrated by Maira Chiodi. Kelpy the otter builds a ship and sets sail, only to be laughed at by other otters, sharks, pirates, and even waves. When he stumbles upon an even tinier seafaring creature, Kelpy is the one laughing...until he realizes that sea life is more fun with a friend. The text's repetitive refrains are fit for a sea chantey; naive cut-paper illustrations complement the childlike storytelling.
