Turtle is so shy she lives alone in a treehouse. One day a storm brings a flood of unexpected visitors to her door looking for help. Will this be too much for Turtle A delightful storybook from the authors of the 2012 bestseller Owl Know How, Cat Rabbit and Isobel Knowles have created yet another painstakingly detailed handmade world (everything is made from felt and cardboard - no Photoshop whatsoever!) and a new set of animal characters who kids will love. Too Much for Turtle is about overcoming shyness, making friendships and building treehouses!
