Summary:
Torey the Turtle Finds his Way is a wonderfully illustrated story that teaches children about perseverance, about problem solving, about how to ask for help when they need it and so much more. “This free-verse book for young children about a little turtle who has lost his mother will delight small children and adults alike with its brightly coloured illustrations and suspenseful plot. Torey the Turtle “walks and walks and walks” as he searches, but he needs the help of a very special human friend who understands that wild animals should be free before he can find his pond, his home, and his mom. Co-written by horsewoman Cindy McElrea and her eldest grandchild

, Torey the Turtle Finds His Way is everything a good picture book should be. I love a happy ending!” Colleen Rutherford Archer, author. Deep River, Ontario, Canada. “Torey is a wonderfully delightful story with a sweet happy ending. This was a joy to read and I think we could all learn something from the characters in this tale. The illustrations were great and help the reader visualize what is happening. A true treasure!” Cindy Hotz, author and animal lover, Linden, MI “My son and I love the book Torey the Turtle Finds his way. What at great messages it provides; the love a child feels for their mother, finding comfort of missing a loved one through an Earthly connection, don't give up hope and keep trying, and wild things should be free. A wonderful book to add to your child's library. We are looking forward to reading more from Cindy and Maddy.” Liz Hughey, author of the bestselling book, Barney the Lopsided Mule. “Cynthia McElrea has written a nice story about finding one's way home. While written for children, it can be relevant to life in general: you may be lost, but if you persevere, eventually you'll get home, sometimes with the help of someone you don't even know who cared enough to lend a helping hand. The artwork is wonderful, and is perfect for illustrating the story.
