Summary
Ottie the otter is a sweet, playful and energetic character. And she LOVES to slide! The problem is, she loves to slide a little too much…

Reviews
“While Ottie the Otter charms us with her silly sliding everywhere, all the time, Orbie wins us over with her rich vocabulary and writing smarts, not to mention the detail she draws our eye to in every illustration and the snippets of information and insight she feeds to readers; nothing is left to chance.”
