This is another short and humorous story about Octrina, our clumsy little octopus who has a hard time managing all her eight arms. She wants to work during summer vacation at Lakeshore Camp. Her first problem is when she finds that she is too big to get on the camp bus and has to arrive into camp in a "We Haul It" wagon. Her eight arms bother the children. The horse she wants to ride took one look at her and ran away. During the hiking trip, Octrina used all her arms to save the campers from an angry bear. Octrina finds what she can do best with all her arms, and at the end of camp, she wins the Best Camper award.

Octrina is a sweet but clumsy little octopus who knocks other children down when she tries to play. She breaks up dishes when she tries to entertain and knocks down all soup cans in the grocery store.Finally, she finds success and happiness after becoming a school teacher where every teacher needs eight arms.
