By George Shillinger and Helen Bailey

Through this engaging story children learn all about sea turtles, including their life cycles, habitats, threats to their survival, and conservation strategies. The colorfully illustrated narrative is presented in both English and Spanish. The Grande Turtle Adventure is an engaging tool to teach children about the life history of critically endangered East Pacific leatherback turtles and threats to their survival while introducing the concept of marine conservation.
