I like the color/illustrations of these books (they have several out there- including Octonauts and the Adelie Penguins, Octonauts and the Whitetip Shark among others) but I'm not a big fan of how skinny and flimsy the books are. I am afraid my two and a half year old son will rip it since he usually wants to be the one holding the book. If you are getting these for an older kid, then they should be fine and the books do match up well with the shows which is nice. But for a younger child, they may end up getting ruined. The price is low enough though so you can always get a replacement if needed which is what we'll do if the time comes.
My 2 year old son is in love with the Octonauts. Between the show and these books, his knowledge of ocean life has grown as has his vocabulary and interest in learning more. He refuses to say "killer whale" or "shamu" but instead jumps to say "Orca". He knows what eels are and my 8 year old niece thinks they are snakes.
Just like the TV episodes. This is good because this is an episode that my son and daughter are very familiar with and have watched multiple times. So as my 7 year old reads it to my 3 year old, she has confidence to read a story she is familiar with and he is familiar enough with the story to not get lost.We have purchased two Octonauts books so far, and my kids absolutely love them. I supsect we will be getting more.
The pictures are large and fun to see. The books contain some interesting facts about the whale shark and the last page contains some more detailed information about whale sharks (in lieu of the "creature report" for fans of the show). The story tracks the show pretty closely and this has been a frequently requested book from my toddler.
Great book and show. Matches up well and factual enough for me to be happy and highly entertaining for him. Good role models and shows working as a team.
My 5 year old son loves these books and this one was no exception. It really holds his attention and teaches him about ocean creatures at the same time.
This was a gift for a friend of the family's daughter. She loved the book and all of the pictures.
Great books, educational and adventure. However, the story plot is exactly as the tv show.
