Grandie bought this book for Jack while we are in Australia because his aunt Jess loves sea turtles. This series continues to be Jack’s favorite, and I have to admit, the turtle book is perhaps the best one yet. After the koala, kangaroo, and wombat books, the turtle book was super bright and colorful and introduced some cool new textures. It saved Jack from a temper tantrum in the car, so that’s a big win.
My favorite part is that the mouse was wearing goggles, a snorkel, and flippers, while he investigated all the turtles.

This new title will sit happily alongside its Touchy-feely brothers and sisters in the book basket or on the shelf. They are cute, affordable and (almost) indestructible little books that tiny people will love.

Truth bomb: *none* of them are your turtle.

April 27, 2025initially she wasn't big into this one because she had been particularly enjoying fluffy or wooly textures. Now she's right into it, and likes the rough tail of the turtle on page two.
