Book overview

"Simple, lyrical words and bright, acrylic double-page pictures convey the astonishing facts about the Loggerhead sea turtle. . . . A powerful nature story for a young audience." --Booklist

Far, far out at sea lives one of the world's most mysterious creatures, the Loggerhead turtle. For thirty years she swims the oceans, wandering thousands of miles as she searches for food. Then, one summer night, she lands on a beach to lay her eggs--the very same beach where she herself was born. Nicola Davies's lyrical text offers fascinating information about the journey of the tiny, endangered Loggerhead, while charming paintings by Jane Chapman vividly illustrate one turtle's odyssey.
