"Oakley had eight hands. He did not know which to use. When shaking hands with new friends, which hand should he choose?" It is polite to shake hands when meeting new people, but which hand should an eight-handed octopus use? Oakley the Octopus worries himself into a knot as he considers his options. At first, his classmates laugh at his predicament. Then a special task reveals the advantages of his many arms.
