About this campaign
Get your own #TeamOctopus t-shirt to remind yourself of your own inner strength -- and with each purchase, you'll also be covering the cost of the book THE BENEFITS OF BEING AN OCTOPUS for a kid at a Title 1 school who needs it.
Inspired by the novel THE BENEFITS OF BEING AN OCTOPUS, students and teachers across the country are taking the #TeamOctopus pledge and working to:
1) Recognize our superpowers.
2) Name our obstacles.
3) Speak up.
4) Team up.

THE BENEFITS OF BEING AN OCTOPUS was listed as one of NPR’s Best Books of 2018, received a starred review from School Library Journal, and was described by Newbery award-winner Karen Hesse as “a compassionate look at poverty, hard choices, and defending one’s right to be treated humanely.”
"This book needs to be read by everyone. Everyone!" -Illinois reading specialist Rachel McMahon
"I am left speechless after reading this powerful novel from start to finish without stopping. It was a startling look through the window into the lives of so many children I have taught." -- Sylvia Scott, Educator in Manitoba

I’ve always taught in underserved communities & many of these kids have never owned books. It’s so empowering for kids when they have books that they can call their own. I’m happy to support this campaign.
Because I love this book and it's compassionate look inside the life of a child with adverse childhood experiences. Certainly a powerful windows and mirrors book that I wish all middle grade/middle school readers would be able to read. Empowering!
Just love #TeamOctopus
