Today, we're reading the Okta nuts and the frown fish by Meiomi. It was a quiet and rainy afternoon at the bottom of the ocean. When. Professor inkling was dusting his dust jackets. Quasi kitten was watering his catnip. Tweak bunny was playing the game. Captain barnacles bear with singing in the rain. Tune up the vegetable was tossing a salad. Peso penguin was pinging. Shellington sea Otter was pawning. Dashi dog was sounding the Yocto alert. The crew, hurry down to HQ to find dashi monitoring the Octopod screens. Anxiously. There's a fish with a very big frown outside. She reported to the others. He looks so glum that all the creatures around him are starting to get upset too. I can't find a fish like him on the Octa net. Dr. Shellington said excitedly, could he be a new species? Octonauts we should investigate professor England declared. Up close. The little fish looked even gloomier. Why are you so sad? Dare she asked with concern, but the fish only replied. Glub glub. What a dilemma. None of the Octa not spoke. Frownies. Perhaps, if we understood his language, then we could help him. Dr. Shellington proposed. Shellington and dashi spent hours in the lab trying to learn frownies, But it proved to be a very difficult language to translate. I don't think we can work much longer dashi side. I'm starting to feel unhappy myself. Let's think of other ways we could cheer him up. Play music with my friends, always brightens my day. Peso shyly suggested. He invited everyone to pick up an instrument. As the crew gathered together to play a happy song. Other creatures joined in There was a clam Capella group, a C Horcose stra and a baritone whale. Unfortunately, the frown fish didn't have an ear for music and continued to Powell. It's hard to feel sad when you're being glamorous quasi announced with a flourish. Let's have a dress up party. The little fish tried on many different costumes. But none of them could disguise the sadness. Dashi held up her favorite camera and asked why don't we visit the famous snail gardens? We could have a photography field trip. The Okta knots took photos of big snails and little snails, striped, snails, and polka dots. Snails. The frown fish, however, wouldn't even smile for the camera. A game of miniature golf, always tickles my fancy revealed. Dr. Shellington. The group putted in swung their way through many aquatic obstacles, sand shark traps, sea dragons, and electric yield tunnels. The frown fish scored a hole in one on the king crab course. But he didn't look any happier. I like working with my Pauls. Let's build something. Tweak suggested. Surrounded by gadgets and contraptions. The crew constructed a robo tank for the frown fish. Tweet stood back and admired their work. Now our friend can use this new sea legs to visit us inside the Octopod. If possible the frown fish looked even frowny or. Tuna chirp D girly as it led the group into the kitchen. Vegetables love to cook and bake. Maybe the frown fishes hungry. Dr. Shellington interpreted helpfully. the whole crew set out to make their favorite pastries. They baked kelp cakes. Muffins and even a fancy kelp souffle. The frown fish ate an entire plate of cookies, but he still looked unsatisfied. There is nothing like perusing the printed word to stimulate the intellect. And galvanize the imagination. Professor and clean exclaimed to a confused crew. To the library, my delightful colleagues. Professor inkling read from his favorite book of jokes, but the frown fish didn't laugh once. Frown fish must not have funny bones. Inkling decided. the other Octonauts weren't too sure. They didn't get the jokes either. Oh, I always feel better after I exercise. Captain barnacles said. The Okta not smooshed down the slide, climb the jungle gym and rode the Seesaw. Peso in the frown fish set on the merry-go-round while quasi pushed them faster and faster until. Oop. The Fram fish flew right off. The little fish turned bounced. And rolled over. Everyone rushed over in alarm. They had only been trying to cheer him up, but now he might've gotten hurt. To the Okta not surprise the frown fish had a big smile on his face. Of course professor inkling realized he's not a frown fish. He's an upside down fish. There are different types of fish that swim upside down. It's easier for them to spot food. This chap is a fine example of an upside down cat fish. Everyone left and relieved to discover that their new friend had been smiling the whole day. The catfish made a big earth. And turned himself back, upside down. Or was it right-side up?
