The Tale of Eartha the Sea Turtle by Dan Bodenstein.
Based on the true story of a loggerhead sea turtle name Eartha, this enchanted tale tells the story of a young sea turtle who finds help in the last place she expected. Through colorful imagery it helps children learn how important it is to help animals who become injured due to man’s negligence.
After witnessing her release back to the sea, author Dan Bodenstein was inspired to write a children’s book to teach kids about the dangers of littering our oceans.

Reviews
“Dan Bodenstein tells a fact-based story with a contemporary moral that inspires empathy and closes with a happy and hopeful ending. He aims at younger children and scores using the simple, brilliantly colored, yet skillfully anthropomorphic illustrations of Brian C. Krumm. Shouldn’t the “Gold Standard†in pre-school children’s books be bestowed on those a child need not read to understand? This little jewel of a book qualifies. Your children will love Eartha even if they don’t know her name.†– John Hudspeth via Amazon.com
“A story sure to delight young nature lovers, all the more powerful because it is true! Beautifully illustrated, the story focuses on how people are working to save their fellow creatures, and that even the smallest among us can have a profound effect!†– Book Mama via Amazon.com
“This is a really cute book with an amazing message that gets kids excited about marine life and conservation. Illustrations are extremely vibrant and adored by my 3 year old son.†– Jack Sears via Amazon.com
