What do you do when an octopus captures Grandma? Put on your superhero cape and rescue her! Two stories in one from award-winning Afro-Latino artist Eric Velasquez.

The octopus Grandma’s cooking has grown to titanic proportions.
Tenga cuidado!
Ramsy shouts. Be careful! But it’s too late. The octopus traps grandma!

Ramsey uses both art and intellect to free her.

Then the story takes a surprising twist. And it can be read two ways. Open the fold-out pages to find Ramsy telling a story to his family. Keep the pages folded, and Ramsy’s octopus adventure is real.

This story is based upon incidents in the author’s childhood, and celebrates creativity, heroism, family, grandmothers, grandsons, Puerto Rican food, Hispanic culture and more.
