Inky's Amazing Escape: How a Very Smart Octopus Found His Way Home by Sy Montgomery
4.0
Nominated for the Washington Children's Choice Picture Book Award, I just got done reading this to the whole school. The youngest students had a coloring book page with a writing section and a prompt "Octopuses can". The older students went to World Book Online to explore articles related to Octopuses.
It was interesting for our students to compare Inky to the octopus we know - the Giant Pacific Octopus which nests in our backyard. We used the map in Huggie and Stick to see where New Zealand is. When the library is finished it would be nice to have a world map that we could label with the book we read.
