Book Synopsis

Un lírico e informativo retrato de la escurridiza y amenazada tortuga marina cabezona que deleitará a los jóvenes amantes de la naturaleza.

Lejos, lejos, mar afuera, vive una de las criaturas más misteriosas del planeta: la tortuga marina cabezona. Por treinta años nada en los océanos, recorriendo miles de millas en busca de alimento. Hasta que una noche de verano llega a una playa a poner sus huevos, la misma playa donde nació. El lírico texto de Nicola Davies ofrece datos fascinantes sobre la travesía de la pequeña tortuga marina cabezona, en peligro de extinción; y los cautivantes dibujos de Jane Chapman ilustran claramente la odisea de una de estas tortuguitas.
