Follow a goggle-eyed octopus as she jets through the shadows, tentacles flying behind her. Finally she finds a well-hidden den in which to lay her eggs, which will dangle from the roof like grapes on a string. In silky verse, Karen Wallace explores the mysterious world of the octopus, while Mike Bostock?s flowing illustrations bring that world vividly to life.

An Informative Book, Beautifully Illustrated

This would interest any child who likes sea creatures. Plenty of facts, poetically worded, and presented in small digestible blocks. The illustrations are beautifully drawn and coloured.

Wonderful and accurate

I am thrilled that there is such an accurate book about the life of an Octopus for kids. Nature is not always gentle, which unfortunately other people do not take into account in their review of this book. I love the octopus, and have bought this book for my kids and my nieces and nephews, because it is a book that is informative and wonderfully written.

4th Grade Class Top Ten Winner

The title of this book is the Gentle Giant Octopus. The author of this book is Karen Wallace. The illustrator is Mike Bostock. The genre is true animal story.
The octopus can have 60,000 babies at a time. When a fish bites off a tentacle, the tentacle grows back. The octopus has no bones. It can fit in really small places. Octopi squirt ink to get away from predators.
The main idea of this book is to teach people about octopi. It is also to teach how octopi live and survive in the ocean. It is on our top 10 because our class loves animals. It is a good book to read and to teach people about octopi.
