Bookroo's summary
Nora's life takes a whimsical turn when a giant octopus appears at her window, becoming a helpful neighbor and her new friend. But when the octopus suddenly disappears, Nora is left with questions. Has her tentacled companion moved on, or is there more to this mystery? As she plans to introduce him at Show and Tell, Nora must uncover the truth behind his sudden absence. Dive into a tale of unexpected friendships and the search for answers in a world where anything is possible.
From the publisher
When Nora hears a soft tap, tap, tap at her bedroom window she never expects it to be the tentacle of a very large octopus, but that’s exactly what it is–an octopus on her apartment building. The octopus turns out to be a very neighborly sort of octopus, helping the residents to wash their cars or weed the window boxes, and Nora makes fast friends with him. But one morning, the octopus is nowhere in sight. Has he moved on already? And just when Nora wanted to bring him for Show and Tell!
