RECENT BOOK REVIEW :
The wonder and beauty of the ocean draws Marie to the beach each day in the hunt for the perfect seashell. Her adventures bring her to the best location on the island. Delighted to catch a glimmer in the distance, Marie rushes to retrieve what she believes will be the most beautiful seashell ever. To her surprise she finds a stranded sea turtle, who oddly enough communicates her frustration of being stuck on the beach. With love and determination Marie seeks a way to release the sea turtle back to her home in the ocean.
Written in English, French, and Spanish children’s author, Nicole Weaver reaches many cultures and pulls at children’s hearts in their love and wonderment of the world around them.

Cuando ella se paró y miró con atención, se percató que era una enorme tortuga de mar. Su corazón empezó a latir rápidamente mientras frotaba ligera y suavemente a la tortuga.
