Description:
A delightful, feel-good picture book about a brave otter who creates a special family when life gets turned upside down. Based on the bestselling verse novel by Katherine Applegate.
Meet Odder- the Queen of Play!
She twists and darts,
weaves and rolls,
circles and swirls,
leaving frothy trails in her wake.
Why simply somersault
when you can triple-doughnut?
Why simply dive
when you can dazzle?
Odder spends her days playing underwater and learning from her mother. But Odder's life takes a dramatic turn when a storm hits, and she is rescued by humans.
Adapted from Katherine Applegate's bestselling novel of the same name (with over 80 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list!) and inspired by the true story of a program that pairs orphaned otter pups with surrogate mothers, this lyrical tale explores resilience, healing and the importance of play through the eyes of one of nature's most beloved animals.
