One wandering sea turtle, two young American scientists, eight months on a tropical island paradise... Join the adventure!
In 1998, marine biologists Anna and Kirsten moved to Jumby Bay, Antigua to study and protect the critically endangered hawksbill sea turtle. One unique turtle caught their attention and provided endless eventful lessons. Peach Fuzz took every possible wrong turn during her first nesting season, winning hearts, earning a new nickname, and teaching sea turtle biology through her unconventional nesting attempts. In the end, Peach Fuzz shows us all the way home.

"A Delightful Trip to the Islands" What a lovely book, and how fortunate Kirsten and Anna are to have lived this experience. I'd recommend it for anyone with an interest in sea turtles, the marine environment or the Caribbean. Heartwarming :)
"Sea Turtles" I bought this for my kids, but have to admit that I read it myself. Now I think I want to go save the turtles too. What a great life, for Anna, Kristen and Peach Fuzz...
