An octopus falls from the sky one day. It lands on a roof and there it stays. The village’s children quickly make friends with it, even though the adults are wary. But the octopus proves very handy indeed, making a perfect slide, helping out with some painting, and even rescuing a cat stuck in a tree. But just when all the neighbors decide they want an octopus of their very own, it disappears. Where has it gone and will it come back?

I picked this book up for my children, mainly because it has an octopus on the cover and the octopus is my all time favorite sea creature. I was not disappointed in the least with this book.
The plot is wacky and endearing, with humor on nearly every page. Once you get past the silliness, you find a story about acceptance.
The illustrations are vibrant and wonderful. The story flows nicely, so it is easy to read aloud and for beginner readers.
