'A WONDERFUL READ...Christine's deep love for turtles comes through on each page.' CRAIG FOSTER, MY OCTOPUS TEACHER

'Will appeal to anyone interested in the world around us.' DR. JANE GOODALL

Filled with reverence and wonder for the natural world, this captivating book reveals the secret life of sea turtles, one of the oldest living creatures on Earth, and the story of one female scientist's fight to save their future.

Fun book, my kindergardener loves it
Format: Paperback
Fun, comic style book. Perfect for my daughter who is a beginner at reading. The pictures help her to follow any words she doesn't know and helps her learn inflection. The story is funny too, my husband and I enjoy it along with the kids.

Excellent book
Format: Paperback
My grandson is seven and he does not like to read but with these books he is eager to read and find out what is happening in the next chapter. These books are more on the comic book format and they are really fun to read. I like them almost as much as my grandson.
