My #naturalitsy friends may love this one. A quick read about turtles and those that save them and the science behind why we care for turtles and what we can learn from turtles about time. What amazing creatures.

pickI love this book! Sy Montgomery lives the life I should be living! She works with animals and their carers or those who study them and then writes books about her experiences. She‘s written about octopuses, pigs, and a collection of essays, “How to be a Good Creature”. This one is my favorite of hers I‘ve read so far though. These turtles and the people who serve them have my heart! I admire the rescue organizations Sy mentions in the book.
“People often asked them:
Why try so hard to save
one little otter?”

Such a cute book so far! I‘m trying to actually read more of the middle grade novels from work this summer, and I‘m so glad I picked this one up. #middlegrademagic #summerofmiddlegrade
pickLoved this novel in free verse. No editing needed. The verse propels the two timelines in Odder‘s life as a Monterey Bay otter needing rescuing. It made me smile and cry. The illustrations are beautiful. A delightful 5/5 ⭐️ for any age.
Such joy! I am loving this novel in verse. The illustrations are delightful.
pickI fell asleep halfway through the last chapter and slept fit fully. Laurie and her family's life after the abusive divorce from her mom from dad gripped my dreams. The judicial system is so broken when kids must continue to visit monstrous parents. This is a story of a farm that saved a mom & her children as well as the hundreds of animals. Written in alternating sections between memoir and Animal Tales. (Photo with our window worm farm 🤪)
