Otters under Water

My son loves Otters and after checking this book out multiple times from the Library, we got it for him as a Christmas present. The artwork really sells the idea of a warm lazy afternoon in the stream, and the the story and text used tells a nice, simple and almost poetic story. Great for nighttime reading to ease a little one into sleep or for anytime. The library binding makes it a very solid book, one that could go through many hands, or be hung onto as a keepsake to pass to ones own children.

Beautifully illustrated, nice bedtime story

This book has gorgeous art, and a simple story for little ones. Bought as a gift with a stuffed otter, and it's a hit.

I ordered this along with some plush otters for grandkids under 3 yrs as they like the otters at the zoo. The watercolors in the book are very pretty, the story is nice and simple to introduce young children to the otter and some other water animals. I'm pleased with the book, as are the grandkids and their parents.

Jim Arnosky is so wonderful because he is true to nature while writing in a gentle language for children. My son learned to read with this book. He read it over and over. He wanted to be a river otter.

The illustrations in this book are works of art and present not only the otters but other river animals as well. An delight for grown ups as well as children.

Absolutely love this book, illustrations and story are so well done!

Cute book

Great story with beautiful pictures
