Schiet op, schildpadjes - Prentenboek

"Hurry Up, Little Turtles" by the award-winning duo Rachel Bright and Jim Field is a thrilling, fast-paced picture book about courage and making choices.

The story is an ode to the power of teamwork and contains a subtle message about how even the smallest animal can make a difference. On a pitch-black beach, a thrilling race begins: a group of newborn turtles rushes towards the sea, watched by a cheering crowd of animals. Dodo is eager to be the first to reach the water. But then her little brother gets lost. What will Dodo do: run to be the first to reach the sea, or rescue her lost brother? Dodo's courageous choice shows that winning isn't always important.

An important lesson in a colorful setting and a lively rhyme—that's what the bestselling duo Rachel Bright and Jim Field excel at. The protagonists they draw from across the animal kingdom are never afraid to learn and grow. Bright & Field's talent is recognized not only in the UK, but also in the Netherlands and Flanders, and each book is enthusiastically received.

"Two Fighting Squirrels," "The Lion in the Mouse," and "Lars the Stubborn Dromedary" have topped the bestselling children's book lists for years. Bright & Field's picture books are playfully translated into rhyme by Bette Westera and are fun to read aloud to children aged three and up.
