Would recommend submitted by whitneywk on July 18, 2016, 9:15am Cute story about a turtle as big as an island that makes friends with a crew of shipwrecked animals. Eventually the animals decide to go home, and the huge turtle is alone again and feeling lonely. He misses his friends. Simple book with bright illustrations about friendship and feelings. Read this with my 14-month-old and she enjoyed it.

Awesome book about friends submitted by melissahimich on July 17, 2018, 1:43pm Such a cute story! Great book about friendship

from a 5 year old submitted by robinfowler on July 24, 2020, 3:00pm This is a good story because it helps people who are in danger. I'm happy that everyone found each other. JJ would like this story.
