TEAM UP FOR TURTLES

About the Book

Nine-year-old Rob and his black lab Rex embark on a big adventure. They are magically transported to Jekyll Island, GA. The clues by which Rob begins his adventure are in a box hidden in his back yard. On the beach at Jekyll, Rob and Rex find a sea turtle nest which has been invaded. Rex scares away the raccoon predator just in time. With the help of volunteers Señora Garcia and Nita, the eggs are recovered for incubation. Rob, Rex, and Nita eventually experience the joy of releasing the hatchlings into the ocean.
