Many children's books personify animals to convey a certain message. LITTLE TURTLE GETS LOST is one of them. It is the story of a small turtle who lives in a lake but does not appreciate his home. Without any plan in mind, he leaves searching for some place quieter. But of course he finds out that "Home is the best place and perhaps the safest." P.S. Oh, by the way, do you know that some fictional stories turn out to be true? In a small town, south west of Chicago, the Mayor Eugene Simpson had a vision to convert an old dump site into a beautiful nature area housing a manmade lake. Thanks to his vision the lake is now home to many native plants and animals. Little Turtle and I sincerely thank Charlotte Moore for her gracious assistance in helping Little Turtle return home.

Oliver the tortoise has had his human, Ike, for a very, very long time now. In fact, they're the same age--80 years old--and practically twins. They both enjoy the slowness of the garden, cool water from the hose on a hot day, and a nice slice of honeydew melon. But when Ike stops visiting the garden, Oliver wonders why his pet has left him so soon. So he makes the long journey to see his mother ten gardens away--she will certainly have the answer. This tender story from the author and illustrator that brought us Memoirs of a Goldfish reminds us to cherish all the days we have with our pets and loved ones.
