Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the magical moment of her hatching, follow Salty the Sea Turtle as she begins her journey. This lyrical tale captures what Salty discovers as she grows from a tiny baby turtle to an adult. The life cycle repeats itself when Salty returns to that very same beach where she was born. Inspiration for Salty the Sea Turtle emerged from the author and illustrator's personal experience. Throughout the summer and into the early fall, sea turtles hatch from nests that dot the coastal beaches of southwest Florida. Each day, a park ranger searches for newly hatched clutches and documents the number of hatched eggs. One summer morning while accompanying the ranger, Randi and Claire watched as a nest was being excavated. Two tiny sea turtles struggled to free themselves. The marvel of new life so fragile and so rarely seen was captured on that morning at Barefoot Beach. It was an unforgettable experience to hold the hatchlings and set them down in the sand as they bravely made their way to the Gulf. Claire Lawrence works as a life skills and academic coach for children with social and behavioral challenges. Combining her love of animals with her skill as a writer, Claire has published delightful and whimsical nature stories. She lives in Bonita Springs, Florida with her husband, Tom, and two English labs. Randi Zwicker has taught reading and language arts at both the elementary and middle school levels.
