Description

Parenthood doesn’t sound joyful for an octopus: Mother octopuses don’t eat while taking care of her eggs, and neither male nor female octopuses live long after they have babies.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this eARC.

S short but interesting read chock-full of interesting facts about octupuses., including size, lifecycle, species, what they eat, what eats them and more!

Although it is a very quick read, it has a lot of information coupled by beautiful photography.

Nothing I didn't enjoy about this book, except maybe its brevity! ❤️🌹
