There's something fishy under the sea.
It seems everyone needs help today.
"I've lost my way to school," a lonely fish says.
"Can someone help me?"

"I can give you a hand," says Ocho the octopus.
"Your school is that way," Ocho points.
"Thanks for helping, Ocho," the fish says. "You are very kind."
The fish races to school and Ocho swims along.

Ocho hears a strange sound.
"Yuck!" a voice says as green seaweed floats by. "I'm stuck in this sticky mess!"

"I can give you a hand," says Ocho. Ocho helps a sea star out of the sticky seaweed.

"Thanks for helping, Ocho," the sea star says. "You are very kind."
The sea star glides away and Ocho swims along. Ocho hears a
strange sound. "Help!" a voice says from behind two rocks.
"I was taking a walk and now I'm stuck!"

"I can give you a hand," says Ocho. Ocho helps a red crab
crawl out from under the rocks. "That was a snap!" says the crab.
"Thanks for helping, Ocho. You are very kind."
The crab scoots away and Ocho swims along.

"It's nice to give a helping hand, especially when you have eight hands to give," Ocho says. "But all this work has made me tired."

"We can give you a hand!" say the fish, the sea star, and the crab. And then Ocho's friends dig him a soft, sandy bed.

"Thanks for helping!" Ocho says. He snuggles in for a nap. "You are all very kind."

His friends hear a strange sound. "Zzzz hnkhnkhn...zzzz," a voice says from the sand. Ocho snores away as his friends swim along.
