Meet Odder, the Queen of Play: Nobody has her moves. She doesn't just swim to the bottom, she dive-bombs. She doesn't just somersault, she triple doughnuts. She doesn't just ride the waves she makes them. Order spends her days off the coast of California, practicing her underwater acrobatics and spending time with a good friend. She's a fearless daredevil, curious to a fault. But when Odder comes face-to-face with a hungry great white shark, her life takes a dramatic turn, one that will challenge everything she believes about herself-and about the humans who hope to save her. Inspired by the true story of a Monterey Bay Aquarium program that pairs orphaned otter pups with surrogate mothers, this poignant and humorous tale told in free verse examines bravery and healing through the eyes of one of nature's most beloved and charming animals.

A poem-like formatted novel.

Review of Odder Poetry Book

5 estrellas

Odder by Katherine Applegate is a super cute novel that is written in free verse poetry. It is about a sea otter who gets rescued by the Monterey Bay Aquarium after being injured by a shark. The story is a little emotional, but offers themes of hope! There are also themes of resilience. The book was a winner of the Golden Dome Book Award (2023–24), the 2024 Black-Eyed Susan Book Award, the Great Stone Face Award, and was named a Blueberry Fiction Honor Title. Also, it is a #1 New York Times bestseller and was recognized as a Parents Magazine Best Book of the Year. This book can be used to teach readers about wildlife conservation, poetry, and point of view. I would recommend this book for students ages 8–12.

This would be a great book for students who already have some background knowledge about free-verse poetry and how to read it. I also think it would be fun to pair this book with a unit about human and animal interactions! Another fun connection a teacher might make with this book would be to show students the Monterey Bay Aquarium website. There, students can learn more about their conservation efforts and even watch live-streamed videos of the sea animals they protect. I think this mixed-media approach would be very engaging for students of any age!
