An octopus follows Charlie home from the aquarium. And that's where everything goes wrong. When Charlie fails to convince his parents that a mischievous octopus is the culprit of the chaos, he takes matters into his own hands, devising a plan to get rid of the octopus once and for all. This book addresses the following social and emotional learning skills: thinking things through before taking action; helping with less desirable tasks and activities when asked; helping others with prompting and support; and independently recognizing when others need help.

Charlie and the Octopus is truly heartwarming, as well as very funny. It's a blend of traditional picture book and graphic novel format, which kept me engaged and the story moving ahead. It's a wonderful story about a boy and his cephalopod and a cuddly bedtime read. --Dan Yaccarino, award-winning children's book author, illustrator, and television producer
