“A very cute story about sea turtles and bullying. The story moves quickly, focused on loggerhead turtles. After the story, a helpful lesson plan provides further information about the other six species of sea turtles, in an informational and interesting manner. Great reading for third grade and up!” Marie Gallay Elementary Teacher, K-3

“Winston Loves Turtles is a brilliantly written picture book which mixes lifelong learning lessons with the love of wildlife. Winston’s classmates learn that the value of being open to learning something new can also lead to new friendships. This makes for a perfect story to teach about bullying. This story reminds me, as a schoolteacher, of the impact I can make every day with my students.”
