Onyx the Octopus has 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 arms, and those arms can do LOTS of things, like shake, run, straighten, bend, and hug! Kids will love learning about octopuses as they move along with Onyx – and learn to count!
"After years of requests from kids, I have finally written a song about an octopus!," says Laurie Berkner. "I have included movement, counting, octopus facts – and the word ‘cephalopod!’ I hope the families who hear it fall in love with Onyx, just like I have."
