From the award-winning creator of I'M THE BIGGEST THING IN THE OCEAN comes an inspiring tale of friendship and belonging that's perfect for fans of THE SNAIL AND THE WHALE, OWEN AND MZEE, and Oliver Jeffers's LOST AND FOUND.Turtle is big. But the ocean is bigger. And Turtle is all alone. Until four shipwrecked folks--a bear, an owl, a frog, and a cat--climb to safety on his shell. Before long, they're fast friends, and the sea doesn't seem so vast anymore. But when Frog confides that he misses his family, Turtle doesn't understand. Isn't he their family? And when the group decides to sail for home, will Turtle be left behind? Never fear--a surprise on the horizon promises friends, family, and a home at last. Uplifting and heartfelt, this is a book about the power of friendship and making a home of one's own.

We go to the beach each year with all of our family. Each year I purchase children's "beach/animal" books to share with my grands. Turtle Island is a fun book and I know they will cherish the memories of reading it together.

Turtle Island is a bright and cheerful new book by the gifted author and illustrator, Kevin Sherry. It will delight both kids and adults. The story is imaginative,creative, and down right cute. A true story of friendship which will leave the reader with a smile on their face. It is simply...turtle-ific!

This is a beautifully illustrated book that your kids will love again and again. I mean, that's what kids do with great books -- the devour them hundreds of times. Luckily, this one is so well drawn and written that you won't get sick of it. Check out Kevin's other books, especially The Yeti Files.

This is an amazing children's book. It teaches about the value of friendship and what meaning friends put in our lives. I highly recommend this book to anyone. My son makes me read it to him every night several times.

I LOVE this book. But it made my 2.5 year old really really sad. She always wants to read it, but then cries when the other animals go home to their family and friends.

This is my 4 year old sons favorite book! He learned to read it also. A must get!

a favorite of my family

Great book!
