Odder

A delightful, feel-good picture book about a brave otter who creates a special family when life gets turned upside down. Based on the bestselling verse novel by Katherine Applegate.

Meet Odder- the queen of play!

She twists and darts,
weaves and rolls,
circles and swirls,
leaving frothy trails in her wake.
Why simply somersault
when you can triple-doughnut?
Why simply dive
when you can dazzle?

Odder spends her days playing underwater and learning life lessons from her mother. But when Odder's life takes a dramatic turn, she is rescued by humans. The people are kind and introduce Odder to other rescues. Soon, it's clear that Odder has a talent for teaching other pups how to otter.

Adapted from Katherine Applegate's bestselling novel of the same name (with over 80 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list!) and inspired by the true story of a program that pairs orphaned otter pups with surrogate mothers, this poignant and humorous tale examines bravery and healing through the eyes of one of nature's most beloved and charming animals.
