Oliver Otter

Oliver Otter loves his little sister and brother. But the twins are always tearing or poking or losing or soaking Oliver’s homework. What will Oliver do about his double dose of trouble?

Oliver's parents soon realise that he is special when he is taken for his first swimming lesson, because, most unnaturally for an otter, Oliver does not like water. 5-8 yrs.

Oliver is a happy little otter with strong hands and arms. Unfortunately, he has a big problem. His web feet are so small that he cannot move fast in the water like other otters his age. Because he is not a good swimmer, Oliver is always left behind. While his mother prays that Oliver will not be an outcast otter, he excitedly starts his first day of school. When he is quickly placed in the “oops, needs improvement” swimming class, it is not long before the other otters begin teasing and bullying him. But what no one knows is that Oliver is about to surprise everyone and transform into a hero. In this touching tale, a loveable sea otter who is being bullied at school teaches everyone around him about the importance of forgiveness, doing the right thing, and faith.

Each story, complete with a synopsis, a link to the liturgical calendar, and a corresponding scripture, offers us a glimpse into the mystery of life and faith.

Homeward Bound meets Finding Nemo in this heartfelt story about a brave sea otter and a rambunctious puppy who team up to find their way home. Oliver is a sea otter determined to prove that he’s not a momma otter’s boy. In an effort to show his bravery, he swims into Puget Sound where all the ships and humans are. That’s when disaster strikes: An oil spill threatens the local wildlife -- and it traps Oliver in the harbor! Franklin, an excitable dachshund puppy, is also lost. He's been separated from his owner, Lucy, and he has no idea how to get back to her. Now Oliver and Franklin must journey through the Pacific Northwest wilderness in search of their families. Along the way, they’ll discover exciting adventures and meet new friends—but will they be able to find their way home?

When Oliver woke up one morning in a body that wasn't his, he thought that acclimating to his new appearance would be the worst of his problems. Things go from bad to worse as he realizes that it wasn't just his appearance that changed, but his very identity is morphing along with it, and he's not alone in his struggle. Joined by Harvey, another victim of the change, Oliver races against time to find a way to reverse the transformation before he loses himself, but he is confronted with the worst decision of all: Does he even want to go back?
