TURTLE WITH A TOOLBOX

"Ferry hooks the youngest readers from the get-go with her bite-size, rhythmically faultless rhymes charting Turtle’s progress as he toils away on a mystery project (spoiler: it’s a tree house) in a grassy open space. The text is filled with onomatopoeia as the smiling Turtle, who walks on his back legs, gets to work. In this salute to teamwork, various animals are happy to help Turtle with the job.  Dudolf’s gentle cartoons depict an utterly adorable all-animal cast; these characters aren’t hard to picture in plush-toy incarnations. 

Just what the toddler ordered."
