It’s spring, and a litter of baby river otters emerges from a den to play.

Follow the otters through the seasons as they chase one another, slide down a mudbank, jump in a pile of leaves, and learn to swim. Even while catching fish for their dinner or grooming themselves in the snow, otters love to play - and Jonathan London’s lively text and Meilo So’s fluid watercolors invite you to share in the joy.

"The story of an action-filled year in the life of a North American river otter family....Fun and informative, this beautifully illustrated, strong narrative belongs in every collection." - School Library Journal (starred review)
