Reviews
My 40,000 children love to learn how to count with Okalani the Octopus. All my little children can't get enough of Okalani's fun ideas. They always swim upstream to Okalani's den to see what new things they can learn from a smart octopus with nine brains. Now that Okalani's second book is out, my children have learned how to make new friends and the value of friendship.

I used to be a regular topic of conversation on the docks in Florida where people would boast about their exciting fish tales . But ever since Okalani the Octopus appeared on the scene, everyone just can't get enough of her. I am almost 50 years old, and folks say my friends are yummy, but nothing comes close to feeding a child's mind with exciting adventures.

As the sole proprietor of Sharkey's on the Reef, Okalani the Octopus has put a constant smile on all my patron's faces. Since Okalani the Octopus became a famous octopus, business has never been better. All of Okalani's friends are always swimming about while feasting on my gourmet cooking. I am trying to convince Okalani to do a cookbook but she insists that her readers are too young to cook.
Well, one can only hope. Thank you Okalani the Octopus and can't wait to read your next book to my boy, Bruce "Sharkface" Junior.
