Remarkably Bright Creatures

Who Knew That One Could Come to Care So Much about an Octopus Named Marcellus

This book pulls at the readers heartstrings. It is a heartwarming and uplifting read - unexpected and profound. I had no idea that octopi were such remarkably bright creatures, one Giant Pacific Octopus in particular, named Marcellus, who is central to the story. Shelby Van Pelt weaves all the pieces of the narrative and the characters together in exceptionally soul stirring ways. My heart was moved by this remarkable story.
