Review

Octopuses are amazing ocean animals and this book covers a wide range of information on this fascinating creature of the deep. The format of the book is well thought out with each spread consisting of a large subhead, easy to understand narrative text and call-outs that accompany the large 4-color photographs. This book includes nine brief chapters, a two-page glossary that includes photos, table of contents, and index/picture credits. The photography is fantastic and clearly conveys the information in the text.

An excellent book for readers who are doing their first research project. This informational book is an interesting introduction to the octopuses of the world.

A strong addition to any library.

Overall Book Score: very good
