The Turtle and the Universe
Click for this Resource!This little book, in its own words, is about asking big questions like “How did we get here?” and “Where are we going?” Those questions are addressed through the life of a sea turtle. The book explores the origin of the atoms that make up the turtle, the origins of the Moon, which guides her journey to lay her eggs, and the origins of the sand in which she deposits her eggs. The story is aimed at upper elementary and middle school children, but it is one that adults will appreciate as well.
