Reach for this book when your child feels like a 'small fish' in a world of grown-up rules, or when a family trip is failing to live up to the hype. This charming story follows Hubert, a young turtle who finds himself the only child at a stuffy, quiet seaside hotel filled with elderly guests. It captures that specific childhood ache of being bored and misunderstood by adults who value silence over play. James Stevenson uses a breezy, comic-strip style to show how an unexpected friendship with a kindred spirit can transform a lonely experience into an adventure. It is an ideal choice for validating a child's feelings of isolation while offering a hopeful, gentle resolution. Perfect for kids aged 4 to 8, this book celebrates the quiet magic of the natural world and the joy of finding someone who finally speaks your language.
