About this product
Product Information
Elliott the Otter lives in Elliott Bay and claims that it's named after him. And why wouldn't it be, since he's in charge of its daily activity? From the freighters bringing in cargo from around the world to the salmon passing through on their way upstream, Elliott is the boss of it all. Young readers will delight in Elliott's antics as they learn about the bustling bay in Seattle's Puget Sound.

This is the (totally untrue) story of Elliott the Otter, commander-in-chief of the busy Elliott Bay. He compares himself to the diminutive tugboat who is "not very big, but has big responsibilities." He goes on to tell all about the activity in the Bay from barges, freighters, cranes, orcas, salmon, and locks. Elliott has many duties and in the end, readers find out his most important job of all. . . The vibrant, larger-than-life illustrations of the boats dwarf Elliott the Otter, endearing this tiny boss to readers. Skewes's artwork uses sharp lines and angular shapes with bright pops of color, in the style of animated cartoons. Readers will come away understanding that even small folk can have big, important jobs to do. VERDICT Though the takeaway is typical of many picture book stories, the energetic cartoon art and harbor scenes will appeal to youngsters. --School Library Journal , This is the (totally untrue) story of Elliott the Otter, commander-in-chief of the busy Elliott Bay.

VERDICT Though the takeaway is typical of many picture book stories, the energetic cartoon art and harbor scenes will appeal to youngsters. --School Library Journal The latest book from Greenwood's John Skewes, writer/illustrator of the beloved Larry Gets Lost series, follows Elliott, a busy little otter who is pretty sure he's the one who runs the show in the bay that shares his name. Elliott's many important jobs include everything from ushering the container ships through the port to playing traffic cop for the salmon as they stampede through the locks. Skewes teams up with Sumner-based children's poet and songwriter Eric Ode to tell a story that introduces kids to our busy working port. --Seattle magazine . . . gives kids a close look at life in Elliott Bay. From tugboats to orcas, Elliot the Otter explains all. He also describes what fish ladders are and why they are so important to salmon. --Teaching My Baby to Read

Seller highly recommended! Item arrived new as described. Packaging was thought out and eco friendly. Shipped carefully wrapped in thinner paper to protect the books, inside recycled cardboard to keep the books from damage, with sturdier paper on the outside. Even though it was shipped media mail it arrived in about a week! Normally media mail takes longer (from places closer to me!), I suspect magic may be involved!
