Once upon a time, Myrtle chased her dreams–dreams of being a queen with a crown that sparkled like the moon. One day, she tumbles down, down, down into the sea. Max helps rescue her and a magic carpet flies her to a place even more amazing than her sandcastle dreams and she discovers an entire ocean of possibilities! Some dolphins welcome her and a friendly otter shares the biggest smile. They can teach her to swim and enjoy the day. Another magical glow surrounds Myrtle when she decides to stay and wishes to be a sea turtle like Max.
And guess what? Myrtle’s fall may have been unexpected, but thanks to a touch of magic, it leads her to a place where her wishes come true. Myrtle becomes a queen AND a magic sea turtle too, ready for incredible adventures! Myrtle the Turtle learns that being a queen means having the best friends ever. And with her sparkly crown and a heart full of joy, she is the happiest queen the whole ocean has ever seen!
Review for The Magic Sea Turtle
Reading about sea turtles is a direct path to my heart. Add a little magic and a lot of imagination, and you’ve captured the little’s hearts. Super cute illustrations help drive the story and makes it come to life. This is a rhyming book that doesn’t always rhyme and sometimes the cadence is a bit off but remains a cute story nonetheless. This post is sponsored by Kathleen Welton. The review and opinions expressed are based on my personal view.
