LEO AND THE OCTOPUS
Leo struggles to make sense of the world. He doesn't understand the other children in his class, and they don't seem to understand him. But then one day, Leo meets Maya. Maya is an octopus, and the more Leo learns about her, the more he thinks that perhaps he isn't alone in this world, after all.
A picture book by Templar Publishing (UK). Illustrations by Chris Nixon.
