A heartwarming tale of adventure, bravery and one baby turtle who changes her world for good - from the bestselling and award-winning creators of The Lion Inside .
On a midnight-black beach, it's time for a GRAND HATCHING. A rowdy crowd of animal onlookers have gathered to see which baby turtle will win the great race to safety in the sea.
But when Tula's brother loses his way, this baby turtle faces a difficult choice: will she choose to win the race or will she turn back to rescue her brother? And will the other animals stay on the sidelines, or will Tula's brave decision inspire them to join the rescue mission?
An inspiring and funny rhyming story of how we ALL have the power to change things for the better.
