About the book
When an overwhelmed mother wishes she had eight arms, her children's imaginative game becomes something more useful: a lesson in helping, empathy, and family teamwork.
Mommy jokes that she needs the arms of a spider or an octopus to manage everything at once. Mina and Bala turn the idea into a game—then discover that the best kind of magic may be helping for real. A warm picture book about family life, responsibility, and the small acts of care that make a busy day easier.
