Review of Inky the Octopus by Erin Guendelsberger


Inky the Octopus

Out of this tank, I must be free.
I must explore the open sea!


Follow Inky the octopus as he escapes from the National Aquarium of New Zealand to the ocean! Based on a true story, Inky the Octopus: Bound for Glory chronicles the adventure that the real-life Inky might have taken on his escape to freedom in the open ocean!

**My thoughts**
This fun rhyming story is about an octopus named Inky who has been enjoying his life in his tank, but now aches to see more of the world And somehow, he manages to escape and venture out into the world. It's based on a true story and also includes some other fun, true, and crazy octopus antics.

The bulk of it is full of fun octopus trivia, making it a fun research tool for older kids. The first part, which is the picture book part, is fun for younger kids to read. Adjust your presentation of it accordingly depending on the age and level of children's you're sharing it with. Let them explore it on their own to get out of it what they can at their own level.

Thank you to NetGalley for the review copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
