Fans of Mo Willems will love this funny bedtime story!
 
Ahoy! It's bedtime, and Octopus is here to help his buddy get ready. First up is a bath (Thank you, Octopus) . . . in egg salad (No, thank you, Octopus)! Then it’s time to brush teeth…with paint brushes!  And don't worry, Octopus made sure there were no monsters under the bed…because they’re all in the closet! No, thank you, Octopus!  Each page turn brings new wordplay and laughs in this hip, nautical-themed take on bedtime and friendship . . . ending with a great big surprise for Octopus and sweet dreams for two best friends.
Darren Farrell is the author-illustrator of the award-winning picture book Doug-Dennis and the Flyaway Fib. He lives, for the time being, with his family in Seoul, South Korea, where he always makes sure there are no monsters under his son's bed. View titles by Darren Farrell
Praise for Thank You, Octopus:

* “A terrific read-aloud; each repeat visit will ensure gleeful participation. A maritime—and bedtime—delight.” Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“This hilarious nautical comedy of errors will lure in unsuspecting listeners.” --Horn Book review
