An Octopus Is Amazing (Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science, Stage 2)

interesting and funny facts and how smart they are

I stumbled upon this book at my grandkids' house when reading with them. This book is just wonderful for young children and old children alike. I learned a lot myself about the octopus and found the book so interesting and fun to read I bought a few copies online to give as gifts. I am a quiltmaker and made a quilt with some octopus fabric, attached the book and donated it to the local children's hospital. I also gave the book with the leftover octopus fabric made into a pillow case for a friend's five year old. She said he made her read the book over and over again. It looks to me like these come in a series with other subjects. If I had young children I would absolutely check them all out. Well done!!!

We read this story as part of an "O-o-octopus" unit for our homeschool kindergarten. My 5 year old daughter enjoyed the illustrations and was able to remember many of the octopus facts from the story. We like non-fiction (especially biology-based) so this story was a big hit.

This book was a great read for my young niece. She loves learning about octopi and there were so many new things that we learned. This a must buy!

Purchased for grandson. He loves reading about all ocean creatures and enjoyed this book about Octopus. Great colors and pictures, and good size for price .

I bought this to supplement an ocean unit that I was doing with my 4 year old homeschool preschooler. Although it was a stage 2 book, he really enjoyed it and learned a lot about octopuses. He was darting around the house "inking" people for a couple weeks after we started reading this. :) We are big fans of the Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science Series. Some of them are more dry than others (probably because they are meant for kids a little bit older), but this one held his attention the whole way through and is often one that he requests me to read to him.

Ones upon a time ..... My daughter loved an octopus!!! We got this book for her and plush toy octopus! She was reading this colorful and very interesting book to us and I learn a lot about cute little octopus!!!!! Year after my daughter still have this book on the shelf with her favorite books. I'm recommending this book to read.

This book is great to read aloud or for an older child to read. It provides many interesting facts and illustrations.

The kids enjoyed reading this book as well as the images

Gut beschrieben und illustriert, spannend und interessant fuer englischsprachige Kinder ab 5 oder 6 Jahren bestens geeigent. Alle lernen was.

Gorgeous book with lots of facts for children with a curious mind. Thankyou

Was for my nephew who throughly enjoyed it

It's not wow. Some repetitive content. Nothing special. The Octopus deserves better.
