Tommy Turtle is accidentally trampled by a frantic herd of deer and his once beautiful shell is now a crumpled mess.Tommy becomes embarrassed by his disfigurement and does not want to be seen out of the water.Tommy encounters many furry (and not-so-furry friends) who want to help him.In lending a hand to the turtle, their quest leads to interesting observations about life.As the story unfolds, there is a clever answer to Tommy's prayers. Saint Francis and Saint Clare step into the story with total unconditional help that creates energy and feeds the imagination.Children will delight in this story that combines self-love and hope to the defeated. Inspired by the love of Saint Francis of Assisi for all animals, this story gently nudges children into being kind to others with handicaps.Susan Evangelista has captured a feeling of helplessness and turned it into a positive force of love and acceptance.The illustrations by Sherrie Coke are an incredible feast for the eye.The professionally recorded in-studio audio CD included will give children some downtime and help them to expand their reading abilities and imaginations.The CD is delightfully narrated by the author with amusing voices done separately for each character in the book.
