Salem Chapel by Oliphant
What if your best friend had eight arms... and no idea how to give a hug?
How to Love an Octopus is a heartwarming and humorous picture book about a curious raccoon named Huck who stumbles upon a shy, clever octopus in a tidepool-and slowly learns the art of connection through gentle patience, quiet moments, and unexpected gifts.
Told through a series of silly and sweet rules, this beautifully illustrated story helps children understand emotions, friendship, and social-emotional learning in a fun and relatable way. Whether the octopus is disappearing into a boot or swirling a heart-shaped cloud of ink, Huck stays present, kind, and curious-showing young readers what it means to love someone just the way they are.
Perfect for ages 4-8, this book is ideal for parents, educators, and caregivers looking for children's books about emotions, ocean animals, patience, and kindness.
Includes bonus content: Huck's Field Notes: Octopus Edition - a playful recap of lessons learned.
A gentle, giggle-filled story for anyone learning how to make friends, love thoughtfully, and build trust-one swirly tentacle at a time.
