"Children who have enjoyed otters cavorting at the zoo will delight in seeing these playful Mustelidae (members of the weasel family) in their natural habitat." —Kirkus Reviews "Barbara Esbensen's descriptive narrative gives readers a sense of observing this playful animal firsthand, but not to the exclusion of basic facts . . . which are deftly woven into the text." —School Library Journal
