Collins Big Cat - Turtle Beach: Band 09/Gold

Paperback

A young girl is excited to be going to a restaurant to celebrate her birthday with her parents. While she’s there, she sees baby turtles trying to find their way to the ocean. It’s a magical event to witness, but she also learns how humans can interfere with the journey of the hatchlings and why they need to take actions to help them reach the water.
This beautifully illustrated book is a story that raises awareness of how simple acts can impact vulnerable creatures like turtles. While this is a story set in the Caribbean, it’s one that goes beyond the Caribbean and highlights environmental issues of interest to everyone.

Gold/Band 9 books offer developing readers literary language and stories with distinctive characters.

Ideas for reading in the back of the book provide practical support and stimulating activities.
