Author Eric Douglas has just re-released his first children’s book Sea Turtle Rescue. It is available in paperback and Kindle formats. Sea Turtle Rescue is a chapter book written for children ages 5 to 9.
This is the third edition of Sea Turtle Rescue. The environmental organization Oceana published the first edition and for the last year and a half it was licensed to the Newspapers in Education program. As an added bonus, this edition of the story is available in Portuguese. Russian and Spanish are coming soon.
The story: When an injured sea turtle shows up near their home on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, Jayne and Marie, along with their friends Javier and Monique, search the beach to find the turtle’s nest and protect it from danger. They know the time is getting short and if they don’t find it soon, the eggs might not get a chance to hatch.
“I have two daughters. As an author and a diver, I wanted to help connect them to the ocean that I love. Everyone loves sea turtles so it seemed like a great way to bring it all together for them,” Douglas said. “They love to read this book and have shared it with their classmates at school as well.”
In celebration of the release of Sea Turtle Rescue, Douglas’ second children’s book Swimming with Sharks will be a free Kindle download from July 2 to July 6.
