Not everyone is good at everything.  Some people can not catch popcorn, and some can not do cartwheels (that’s me), and some can not draw octopuses.  But art is in the eye of the beholder.  And after Arlo makes a friend, he learns to trust and believe in himself.  I love how all skin colors are represented in this book.  It was a fun read and the illustrator did a great job getting the point across.
