As someone who adores all things octopode, I remember when Inky and his escape was on the news, back in 2016, and how wonderful I thought it was, that this clever creature made such a successful break for freedom. As is so often the case, truth is stranger (and more wondrous) than fiction. Picking this book up, I though how delightful it was that author Sy Montgomery, who wrote The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration Into the Wonder of Consciousness, should be the one to present this story to the picture-book set! Her narrative is engaging and informative, and is paired with charming mixed-media illustrations from Amy Schimler-Safford. An afterword gives more information, as well as a (very brief) list of further reading ideas. All in all, an excellent work of picture-book natural history, recommended to all young animals and nature lovers. ( )
