This book contains a perfect portion of information: not too much, not too little. It is clearly organized. Plus nice photographs. Yes!

This award winning book was a disappointment. Mike Bostock’s illustrations are captivating but as a whole this book does not work for us. It’s kind of boring. There are more interesting books on an octopus out there.
