Drift through a sunlit reef as a child named Mei and a day octopus called Kiko move through their shared day-wake, wander, hide, return, rest. In From Morning to Moonlight with an Octopus, Kimberlee Everson's lyrical lines pair wonder with real science, inviting readers to see the ocean the way an octopus does-through color, pattern, and touch.

Threaded through the gentle story are true details children remember: color-changing chromatophores, skin that raises bumpy papillae, suckers that taste, a whooshing siphon for jetting, and three hearts pumping blue blood. A fact page at the end gathers more to explore, supporting curious minds and classroom connections.

Shaped for ages 5-10, this calm, rhythmic read-aloud mirrors a child's day with an animal's day, easing from bright morning to quiet night. It sparks imagination and close looking-spot the camouflaged octopus, notice patterns, and feel the hush of the reef as both Mei and Kiko settle to sleep.
