Have you ever wanted to know more about the incredible animal, the octopus? The Den That Octopus Built takes the reader through an octopus' daily life. It also explains the life cycle of the octopus and how they defend themselves from predators.
Sonenshine teaches readers facts about the octopus in a very unique way. Hunter’s illustrations use beautiful pastel colors and the text is patterned after the nursery rhyme, This is the House That Jack Built. What a clever way to teach science!
