(3) K-3 A giant turtle offers refuge to four animals shipwrecked in the ocean. Homesteading on Turtle's shell, everyone contributes as best they can, eventually forming a deep bond. Turtle is heartbroken when the animals, missing their families, return home--happily the story doesn't end there. Turtle's tale has heart, and the compelling pencil and ink drawings, painted with watercolor and salt, keep things afloat.
