The first pages

Isabela and her abuelo walked along a Florida beach at sunset. Near the dunes, a small square of sand was marked with stakes and a sign. "A sea turtle nest," Abuelo said softly.

"Two months ago, a mother loggerhead turtle crawled out of the sea at night," Abuelo explained. "She dug a hole, laid about one hundred eggs, and swam back to the ocean."

What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.

Talk time questions

  • How do baby sea turtles find the ocean?
  • Why did the neighbors turn off their lights?
  • What small thing can you do to help animals?
