Emma's pet turtle so enjoys listening to her tell stories about life in other countries that he leaves his pen to go exploring for himself. Though he thinks he's reached Australia and India, he ultimately realizes that there are adventures aplenty to be had in his own backyard. Watercolor illustrations trace the route of the intrepid turtle's journey.
