Otto's Tale

Otto is a clever octopus. In fact, he is one of the brightest brains in all the oceans (he has nine of them) and he is about to host the Annual Convention of Sea Creatures. Then disaster happens. A ship dumps its waste onto his den and destroys his beautiful reef. What is he to do? Disaster follows disaster but can Otto (and his new best friend Coco the coconut octopus) restore the reef to its former glory? Follow Otto on his scary adventures and see whether Coco and all their fishy friends can survive all the dangers of the deep and bring peace to their once wonderful underwater home.

"I loved drawing all the funny sea creatures. Otto is my favourite - especially when he finds an old paint pot and wears it as a hat."
