The graphic is great for kids who have an interest in marine life and aquatic creatures. I think its a fun and educational book.

Children, especially those who are interested in science and/or animals, will absolutely love this adorable nonfiction graphic novel about cephalopods! The artwork is beautiful and does an excellent job of complementing the information provided without being distracting. The more scientific components are presented in ways that are easily digestible for readers of all ages; I especially liked how the narrator made references to things with which children may already be more familiar to help them grasp new concepts. Even I, at the age of twenty-seven, learned some really fascinating facts from this book!

This book combines so many of the things the children with whom I work ask me about regularly: science, animals, and graphic novels. I think this will be a big hit with both its intended audience as well as people of other age groups who get their hands on it!

This was a very cute and fun look at different kinds of octopi and various facts about them. It's great for children of all ages, including those like me iny theories but still able to enjoy new facts in a kid friendly way. It's like taking vitamins as gummies!

I for one did not know that tentacles were different from the arms octopi have (yes, technically, octopi don't have tentacles despite every calling their limbs that! Misinformation spreads once again!)

Or that there was an octopus species named for Dumbo the elephant.

This book also has a cute message of "everybody is special and unique in their own way" by highlighting how the octopi are suited for their environments.

This is an adorable non-fiction graphic novel for older kids! Easy and interesting facts accompanied by adorable illustrations. Easy to follow the flow of text. Would love to see a whole series of these.

Thank you Netgalley and publisher for the eARC!

I'm a Dumbo Octopus! is a nonfiction graphic novel about cephalopods with Grimpy the dumbo octopus acting as your guide. He tells us all about different skills and features each cephalopod like coconut octopuses, mimic octopuses, and Caribbean reef squids have and why they are beneficial - such as how a Caribbean reef squid can change color to scare other males or attract females and sometimes do both at the same time. Readers are sure to be engaged by the graphic novel format while getting plenty of laughs and even a boost of self-esteem like Grimpy does as they learn.

I LOVE THIS
OBSESSED WITH THE ARTSTYLE
Easy to understand, eye pleasing illustration, very insightful!!!

I'm a Dumbo Octopus! is a book all about octopuses from the perspective of a dumbo octopus. I really enjoyed this book, even as an adult. The illustrations are very cute, while still being informative. I learned a lot of new information about different types of octopuses! It also had a side theme of finding the things that make you unique as an individual. I'd recommend this for middle elementary up due to some of the vocabulary. There are lots and lots of multisyllabic scientific words.

Thanks to Anne, Lerner Publishing Group, and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.
