How this book started
While I was busy writing my own books, Ozzy came to me one day and asked, "Dad, can you help me write a book?"Ozzy's love for turtles is what started this whole adventure. He picked the turtles he was most excited to share, chose his favorite facts, and helped shape the book from beginning to end. His older cousin Casey brought the cover to life with her artwork, and together we turned Ozzy's idea into something special.This book is more than a collection of turtle facts. It's a family project inspired by curiosity, creativity, and a love of nature.
Whether you're a parent, grandparent, teacher, homeschool educator, or librarian, this book is a fun way to encourage young readers to explore, ask questions, and discover the amazing wildlife that shares our world.
Look inside
Every page has a real turtle and simple facts kids can read with you or on their own. Then come the mazes, puzzles and games.
At the end of their journey, young readers can proudly claim an Official Explorer Certificate signed by Ozzy himself. It's his way of welcoming them into a community of curious explorers who love learning about animals and nature.
