A Beautiful Middle Grade Story
From what I have understood, Katherine Applegate has a gift for writing emotionally compelling animal stories, and Odder is no exception. This was my first book by this author and I am looking forward to reading more.
This is a beautiful book written in verse and it tells the story of a playful and curious sea otter who finds herself in a life-changing situation. This book is inspired by real-life otter rescue and rehabilitation efforts and she blends facts with a deeply moving story about survival, resilience, and the connection between humans and wildlife.
I think the verse format works well for this story because it keeps the story light with Odder's joyfulness but also delivers a powerful emotional story. This is a must-read for animal lovers and anyone who enjoys crafted storytelling with an important message.
