First and foremost, Do you Know where Sea Turtles go? is an environmentally correct book for children. It is intended to entertain and educate drawing attention to the plight of the Sea Turtle.

Paul Lowery uses rhyming verse to bring the story of Myrtle the Sea Turtle to little readers. Written for children 4-8 years, his lyrical cadence is easily assimilated and quickly imitated by youngsters. Myrtle starts life on a Florida beach where her mother has buried her family of eggs deep in the sand. The tiny turtle faces immediate challenges as she races with her many siblings to the sea.

Illustrator Tim Thomas has a knack for telling the story with pictures and the combination of his illustrations and Lowery?s verse is delightful. Pictures are brightly colored, charming and endearing. Children will love Myrtle?s adventure as she explores the sea and all of the creatures that live there. The entire life cycle of the Sea Turtle is explained in an entertaining and enlightening way.


Teachers will appreciate the pages showing the various types of turtles, which are fully illustrated. An excellent learning tool for teachers and parents that will bring the world of the sea to youngsters; this book helps children learn how to protect their greatest asset, the earth and her inhabitants.

Both author, Paul Lowery and Illustrator Tim Thomas live in Florida and are environmentalists. Highly recommended by Reviewer: Shirley Roe, Allbooks Reviews.
