A little bit of magic can go a long way, but teamwork makes the dream work.

My heart ached when I saw the little star friends caught in the kelp on shore, but leapt with joy when the turtles 🐢 showed up to the rescue! The question was though... was the task too great? Intentions are wonderful, but how can two little turtles save all those little sea friends in time?! Not to worry, my fellow readers, they knew that while their flippers could carry a few, many flippers, and wings, and other things, could help carry the lot. By realizing they needed help, and not being afraid to ask for it, these friends pulled together and get these little stars just where they need to be...in the sea to frolic and thrive, and perhaps one day be seen by curious divers like you and me!

A great way to show the power of friendship, andthe strength in helping to share a load too big for one, while being dazzled by the lovely land, sea, and air scenes that come to life before your eyes.
