Follow Little Turtle as she swims through the sea, growing, learning and making friends. When human pollution starts to alter the watery world she loves, Turtle finds herself in terrible danger in her own home. But though human's caused the damage to her environment, they can fix it too, and are able to restore Turtle's world to one of colour, life and safety.
This is a sweet but important story about the impact of human waste and plastic on marine wildlife. Little Turtle's world is bleached of colour when human rubbish invades. She becomes alone and trapped on a poignant page that will encourage readers young and old to think about the plastic they use and what they're throwing away.
I really liked the factual pages at the end (which I've noticed in a few Little Tiger books now) as they answer all of the questions inspired readers will have, as well as directing them to other books and websites.
Poh's artwork is wonderful and her under-water world is one I would love to visit. There's lots of colour on every page and my children enjoyed pointing to all of the little fish in the background.
Thank you Little Tiger for sending me a copy of this picture book for review
Little Turtle and the Sea is written by Becky Davies and illustrated by Jennie Poh
