Squid and Octopus: Friends for Always
The four tales in this charming picture book show funny moments in the life of best friends Squid and Octopus. Yes, they argue sometimes, but they are always able to cheer each other up in glum times.
They are a very lucky duo. As the fortune cookie in the final story says, they will always have a true friend to count on.
