Description

A lovingly rendered and researched story about our some of our world's oldest, most beloved - and most endangered species - sea turtles!

It is night on Raine Island, a coral cay on the outer edges of the Great Barrier Reef .... All is quiet except for the gentle sighing of the waves. Suddenly something moves on the shore. Under cover of darkness, a little green turtle climbs out of her sandy cradle. Isabel Muller's remarkable and engaging account of sea turtles creatures that have roamed the Earth for over two hundred million years is as important as it is compelling for young and old alike.

Reviews

"In quiet prose, German author-illustrator Muller describes the sea turtle s undersea wanderings...[this is a] simple, compelling portrait of an endangered species."-Publishers Weekly"
