Description: In this hilarious rhyming story, a young octopus is on a mission to find the perfect pair of pants. He searches high and low across the ocean, visiting shops that sell slipper-socks for eels and all-in-ones for urchins, but nothing seems to fit his eight arms. The bright, summery illustrations bring the underwater world to life, featuring a cast of expressive sea creatures from zebra fish to turtles. Just when the octopus is about to give up, a helpful shop owner points out that he doesn’t need pants—he needs a shirt for his arms! The story ends with the octopus embracing his uniqueness and finding a solution that works just for him. “Octopants” is a silly, joyful celebration of individuality and creative problem-solving, perfect for storytime, classroom discussions about self-acceptance, and for any child who loves ocean adventures and a good giggle
