In The Octopus's Journey Downtown, Oliver, an inquisitive octopus living in the deep ocean, becomes fascinated by the human world above the surface. Unlike the other sea creatures, Oliver is captivated by the stories of dolphins and a wise old sea turtle named Gerald, who describe bustling cities with towering buildings, unceasing activity, and bright lights that never fade. Over time, Oliver's curiosity grows stronger, and he decides to embark on a journey to the surface to experience this world firsthand. Despite the challenges ahead, he is driven by an overwhelming desire to discover the unknown mysteries of the human world, particularly the vibrant and ever-moving "downtown" that Gerald so vividly described.
