Whiskers in the Tall Reeds

A bright-eyed otter peeks out from behind a cluster of tall, waving cattails, paws set firmly on a round, smooth stone. His round nose twitches with curiosity and his whiskers stand out like sunbeams, making it look like he is ready for a splashy secret. Sunlight would make his fur shine, and you can almost hear the gentle rustle of the reeds around him.

Curved lines show the soft fur on his chest and cheeks, and every blade of grass stretches up like silly green fingers. The cattails reach high above his head, standing straight and proud. The otter’s big, shiny eyes look right at you, as if he’s waiting for a new friend—or maybe a funny joke!

Fun Fact!
