Dive into this adventure to learn about a real town in Cuba and its conservation facts woven into a story created by two young boys (Asher and Hector). This bilingual story of Maria la Tortuga will inspire both children and adults while reminding us, there’s always a solution. Written in English and Spanish, Maria la Tortuga is the result of multi-generational friendships supported by a desire to heal the ocean. During a national food shortage in Cuba in the 1990's, locals in Guanahacabibes were eating sea turtles and overfishing as they fended off starvation. Dr. Maria Elena Ibarra Martin, who led the Center for Marine Research at the University of Havana, convinced her government to protect Guanahacabibes. Asher’s mother and grandfather visited the area during the initial recovery phase in 1998 and developed a friendship with Dr. Martin. In 2018, after many trips to Cuba with others who held a similar passion, Asher’s family and friends successfully nominated Guanahacabibes as a Hope Spot for The Mission Blue Foundation, founded by Dr. Sylvia Earle. A year later, Asher and Hector visited the area to learn how it went from a scene of destruction to the focus of a conservation partnership.From this experience, Asher wrote the story of Maria, a baby sea turtle who was born during the food shortage and narrowly escaped death. When she returns decades later to lay her first batch of eggs, she doesn’t recognize her home. Her new friend, Osmani, explains why and how it changed. The story offers small steps that anyone, no matter where they live, can take to be part of the solution. Readers can learn about conservation at a real town in Cuba, take in the beauty and maybe learn a few Spanish words while they’re at it.
