And it will divulge how octopus mothers give their all in order to bring forth a new generation.With this offering, acclaimed author Sy Montgomery-known, thanks to her bestselling book, as the "octopus whisperer"-returns to the species she knows and loves, offering current and compassionate stories about the scientists on the front lines of octopus research and conservation.For all animal lovers-and especially those drawn to this magical marine being-this will be a book to relish, for both its fascinating imagery and its charming storytelling.
