我真的很想要一只聪明的宠物，一只有很多可爱之处的宠物。
那种有身怀绝技，又有大量手臂的宠物。

你有没有想过最好的水生宠物是什么呢? 当然是章鱼啦! 它们可以同时玩不同的球类游戏，到了该睡觉的时候，它们可以一直保持伪装，让你拥有八倍的乐趣--只要小心墨水...

I really want a clever pet, a pet with many charms.

The sort of pet with talents, and a large amount of arms

Have you ever thought about what the best aquatic pet would be? It's an octopus, of course! Playing different ball games simultaneously and staying camouflaged when it’s bedtime is eight times the fun – just watch out for the ink... With vibrant illustrations and playful rhymes, If I Had an Octopus is a charming and imaginative tale about bedtime story that follows a little girl's flight of fancy as she imagines the advantages and disadvantages of having an octopus for a pet.
