Watch Get Rolling with Otis on Apple TV!
The #1 New York Times bestselling artist Loren Long,
presents Otis and the Kittens, a story of friendship and unlikely
heroes, now in board book format!
On the farm, it hasn't rained in a long time. One hot afternoon, when
Otis and his friends are resting beneath the shade of the apple tree,
Otis spots something moving down in the valley--an orange tabby cat
headed straight for the old barn. But then Otis sees something else that
causes his engine to sputter . . . a swirl of smoke coming from the
barn. A fire!
As Otis races toward the fire with his friends in tow, he spots the
tabby cat mewing in alarm. Otis rushes inside to discover the source of
the cat's worries--her little kittens are trapped inside! Will Otis and
his friends be able to save the day?
Told with a sense of play and devotion, this is a heartwarming tale that
reminds readers that sometimes even those who we count on to help us
need a little help themselves. From the creator of Otis, the
illustrator of Love by Matt de la Peña and Of Thee I Sing by
President Barack Obama, this sweet story that celebrates firefighters
and heroes of all shapes and sizes is now available in board book
format, perfect for the youngest of readers.
Loren Long wrote this story as a tribute to the firefighters who, like
Otis, rescue people every day with their strength and bravery. Of
course, people who aren't first responders should never go into a
burning building for any reason. Reading this story to children is a
great opportunity to discuss fire safety.
