I Am Otter, the first picture book starring the hilarious and adorable character Otterwhich is perfect for fans of theLlama Llamabooksis now available as a board book.
This is a story about Otter and her best friends, Otter Keeper and Teddy. And it's about the fun and messy (and little bit scary) adventure they had one day when Otter Keeper was at work.
Otter's utterly winning voice and Sam Garton's classic yet fresh artwork combine to create a truly hilarious and unforgettable friendship story.
"A bright and hilarious escapade about an otter who, bored while her owner's at work, opens a toast restaurant. Hysterical." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "This fully realized picture book captures warmth, imagination, and playfulness in the character of Otter." -- School Library Journal "Good-natured fun." -- Booklist "Garton's debut picture book does a bang-up job of introducing Otter. There's a lovely dimensionality and sense of physical comedy in Garton's digitally created artwork. Combined with Otter's winning brand of self-importance, it's plenty to propel her into future adventures." -- Publishers Weekly
