I guess it's common because it rhymes. :)

And that one was copyright 2002! It's a good drawing of an ocotpus, too - I'm going to have to give some thought to the upcoming Ollie book, the Ollie tote bag series, and the Ollie note cards. (I promised Ollie she would be famous.)

Yes, I think Olllie Octopus is common because both words begin with the same letter - Polly Octopus isn't as good.

Her nickname was Ollliepod, by the way.

As for the eggs, well, either the bristleworms ate them or Ollie herself destroyed them - there weren't many - and after a month or so, she stopped guarding so carefully the area where they were and started dismantling her den. I don't think they were fertile, but bimacs can lay infertile eggs.

Looks like Ollie already has her own song. (or two) :)

And part of a theme park.

And cheesy story.


And a lot more; I did a Google search for Ollie octopus.

That's a funny cheesy story!

I am just glad they said octopuses and not octopi!

All the other octopuses ...
they hide too.
They're shy and they hide
in the ocean blue
