Publisher Comments:

The Octonauts are a crew of adorable animals who roam the ocean in search of adventure, treasure, and fun! From their undersea base called "the Octopod," the Octonauts explore a colorful world full of thrills, chills, and gills! These eight talented critters, including a brainy octopus, brave polar bear, daredevil kitten, and scientific sea otter, are always ready to embark on a new, exciting voyage.

In this debut episode, the Octonauts encounter a giant sea monster that is actually looking for companionship. Is he the only one left of his kind in the ocean? The Octonauts' mission is to find out! Along the way everyone learns the special value of friendship and individuality. The Octonauts will charm children, attract adults who appreciate sophisticated design and subversive humor, and guarantee readers will stay tuned for the next Octonauts adventure!

Review:

"With a burgeoning roster of sassy and adorable characters, beautifully realized illustrations, and a heap of wit and imagination, Meomi is poised to take on the Sanrios of the world and emerge as a new empire of cuteness!" Copacetique

Review:

"Far from being loved by a niche, the mascots have an enormous fan base." Mascotte!

Review:

"The stunning, stylized color illustrations emphasizing simplicity, curves, and a 'big head/small eye' anthropomorphic look gives Octonauts a unique appearance....A wonderfully imaginative and enchanting tale." Midwest Book Review

Synopsis:

Hello Kitty meets Star Trek under the sea.

Synopsis:

Meomi's character design is terrific. But their books, especially their first book, are more than that...I love it, and more importantly, my son loves it and asks for it at bedtime.” - Super Punch

“I usually hate 'cuteness' but this book breaks through to even my cold dead heart...Come on, we're talking about 'a valiant polar bear, daredevil kitten, and big-hearted penguin.'... I'm considering making friends with people who have kids, just so I have an excuse to buy, like, a zillion copies.” — SFGate, San Francisco Chronicle

"Critter lovers, young and old alike, will fall in love with Meomi's new book series based on the voyages of their popular gang of explorers...sure to charm its way to the inner child in all of us.”—Venus Zine

"The characters are cuddly and quirky, and the moral of the story is as good as a hug from a dear one saying I love you for the individual you are.' We hope that's a joy you'll never outgrow." - Rivet Magazine
