One day a curious turtle wanders away from his home and finds himself right smack in the middle of a busy road! A woman driving on the road stops her car, picks him up, and puts him in her car so he doesnt get run over. The two become friends, and the woman gives him a name: Elijah. Elijah is treated very well at his new home. He has warm bathwater run for him, he can eat all the leftovers he wants, and he can explore freely in the womans backyard. It seems he has the perfect life. But after a while, Elijah realizes something is missing. Elijah the Turtle is a wonderful childrens book that reminds us of the things nature intends while sharing with us a unique friendship only nature could have created.
