What is Octopus Shocktopus! about?
One morning, a giant octopus appears on the roof, and the children are thrilled to meet him. With eight wiggly arms, he soon becomes the perfect slide, a brilliant football partner and a helpful hand around the house. He joins in with painting, lends a tentacle when things go wrong and even rescues a cat stuck in a tree. But can this unusual visitor become part of the family? A funny, rhyming story about welcoming new friends and discovering that being different can be wonderful.
