Book Review



Review:

The book is published by our dear friends at Island Heritage. You remember that is the place that only publishes books about Hawaii? Well, I picked this book because it is a good story, but also, it has fabulous pictures. If you have ever snorkeled, you will know why I say that. Some of the pictures look just like an underwater scene. The story is called "LIMU, THE BLUE TURTLE."

It is about a little turtle who is born blue instead of green like all of the other turtles. At first Limu is sad, but later he meets other sea animals and helps them in kind ways. He finds a new home where no one cares about the fact that he is different. I love stories like this because (as we know) they have really, two meanings. It is about more than a turtle. It could be about a boy or girl who thinks no one likes them because they are different too. The little turtle learns that being different is really a good thing because what really matters is how you are inside.

This story is written by Kimo Armitage and illustrated by Scott Kaneshiro. Again it has fabulous pictures-just like snorkeling on a beautiful reef in Hawaii. 

 Enjoy! Mrs. L.
