Summary

Pat is an adorable little sea otter. She likes turning up her toes and floating in the sea, chasing fish, and asking a hundred and one questions. One day, Pat makes friends with another otter, Bobby. The two enjoy playing and exploring together, until their lives are unexpectedly turned upside down when they get caught up in a storm and washed ashore on an island.

Lovely story. Performance ok

We bought this after reading the book which my daughter loves. We also have the audiobook of The Hen Who Wouldn't Give Up, also read by Maureen Lipman which is brilliant.

The one thing that I dislike is the accent that the otters have. I find it quite irritating, but this is a personal gripe

Mistake.

I accidentally spend a credit on this. I thought it was cute. Then I realised that It wasn't even a hour long! (I usually listen to at least an hour and a half a day) might be good for a 'quick to sleep' child. But otherwise not great, the book was a good read though.
