by Mrs. Andrada
Baby Turtle's story begins on a beach in Florida. Her mother crawled out of the ocean and dug a hole in the sand to lay her eggs.
Baby turtle is an egg now. Her mother will use her flippers to cover her with sand.
For two months, Baby Turtle grew inside the egg under the warm sand. She begins to hatch, breaking out of the shell and crawling out.
She circles around. Which way should she go? She sees the shining moon above the ocean and runs toward the bright light of the moon.
Baby Turtle joins the other hatchlings in their race to the water.
