Two Turtles who Wouldn't Give Up!
Tyler was a happy turtle, living in the Georgia Aquarium, but he knew his natural habitat was the sea. He was determined to find his way there. One night, Tyler, and four sea turtle friends dug underneath the fence and escaped. But which direction was the sea and how far away was it? None of them had any idea.
Tyler, an optimistic turtle, leads the way, confident he will find his real home, but will he and his friends have the courage to withstand the difficulties?
Despite numerous obstacles they continue on their amazing journey. What they experience, what they see, and what they learn about themselves will inspire all of us to follow our dreams with grit and determination.
Children of all ages can follow along on this delightfully written and illustrated odyssey about two turtles who never give up. The journey may be challenging, but finding your home is a reward worth the effort.

BEAUTIFULLY illustrated book!
This is a lovely uplifting book for children and adults! I loved reading it and looking at the stunningly beautiful illustrations! I am buying this book for my grandsons and our neighbors with children. This is a book that little ones will want their parents to read to them every night, over and over again.
