Emily
By Tomi Ungerer
Octopuses have a bad reputation. However, Émile the octopus will have his statue! He saves a diver from the teeth of a shark and many other people.
It was in the 1960s, after The Adventures of the Mellops Family, that Tomi Ungerer undertook, in New York, a series of albums in honor of animals hitherto unloved or completely absent from children's books: a boa constrictor, Critor; a bat, Rufus; a vulture, Orlando; a kangaroo, Adelaide and an octopus, Émile, here. They belie their reputations, embody goodness, save lives, and prove to be more human than those who first rejected them.
