About this listen

A touching and lyrical tale about a remarkable sea otter, from Newbery Medalist Katherine Applegate, author of Wishtree.

Meet Odder, the Queen of Play:

Nobody has her moves.

She doesn’t just swim to the bottom,

she dive-bombs.

She doesn’t just somersault,

she triple-doughnuts.

She doesn’t just ride the waves,

she makes them.

Odder spends her days off the coast of central California, practicing her underwater acrobatics and spinning the quirky stories for which she’s known. She’s a fearless daredevil, curious to a fault. But when Odder comes face-to-face with a hungry great white shark, her life takes a dramatic turn, one that will challenge everything she believes about herself—and about the humans who hope to save her.

Inspired by the true story of a Monterey Bay Aquarium program that pairs orphaned otter pups with surrogate mothers, this poignant and humorous tale told in free verse examines bravery and healing through the eyes of one of nature’s most beloved and charming animals.

*Includes a downloadable PDF of the Glossary and additional resources from the book

awesome!

I liked it because I read the story before and it's kind of sad but it makes me feel happy when there's a happy ending and they're usually is and this one has a happy ending and I like it.

Great story and narrators

I was a member of the Monterey Bay Aquarium for many years. I knew about the sea otter surrogacy program but this story gave me greater insight into how this all started and how it evolved. The hard work and dedication of the staff have saved the lives of many of these precious animals. 💕
I’m anxious to share this story with my young grandson.
