This story about a baby otter having an identity crisis is as much for children aged 3–8 as it is for the kid in all of us …
It’s Otto’s birthday, and he decides to become a pirate. The only problem? His mom says that if he wants to sail across the seven seas, he must first learn how to swim.
The troublesome twins, Sam and Pam, join Oscar the Rabbit, to watch as Otto gets a swimming lesson from his mum.
At first, he sinks. He splutters. He panics. And then he swims!
Soon, Otto is slipping through the river like a true otter and learns that all he needs to be is himself.
Read this story aloud to any small children facing the scary journey of self-discovery or their first swimming lessons. It’s also perfect for early-school readers and any fans of The Gruffalo!
