One of five books I wrote as part of Creative Company’s Amazing Animals series aimed at second-grade readers, which tell the tales (and tails) of some of the Earth’s most fascinating creatures—how they live, what they eat, and what makes them unique. They were a lot of fun to write, and the animals were of course adorable and fuzzy. (Well, not the scorpions…) Published in January 2025.

From Creative Company’s description: With its sleek body and webbed feet, the otter is an amazing swimmer and diver. This zoology title for children, filled with beautiful photos and factual life science text, examines the aquatic mammal’s anatomy, hunting and feeding habits, life cycle, and cub care. Its ocean and river habitats are described, too. A folktale from the Alutiiq people of Alaska explains the connection between the otter’s long tail and its life on land and in the water. Part of Creative Education’s popular Amazing Animals series, this book supports elementary-aged readers with captions, on-page definitions, additional resources, and an index.
