Summary
The Green Sea Turtle
It is night on Raine Island . . . All is quiet except for the gentle sighing of the waves. Suddenly something moves on the shore. Under cover of darkness, a little green turtle climbs out of her sandy cradle. Isabel Müller's remarkable and engaging account of sea turtles--creatures that have roamed the Earth for over two hundred million years--is as important as it is compelling for young and old alike.
