This is an excellent MG book and a book parents, older siblings, grandparents can safely read together with the younger ones.
Silver’s family are going through a difficult time. We are in a rescue centre in Costa Rica, and Silver and her friends help the turtles, and each other.
It is both tender and adventurous. Much appreciated. 4.5 stars.

Wow! What a fabulous book about Silver, a young girl who, along with her parents, travel to Costa Rica. While her father paints pictures to help raise funds for a Turtle sanctuary Silver soon immerses herself in helping at the sanctuary. A fabulous story highlighting the plight of turtles and how we need to do everything we can to help. A story about hope, love and understanding.

I love how Hannah writes beautifully crafted stories that not only raise the issues of dangers facing animals on our planet but also build a cast of characters that you grow to love through the story. Silver is another strong female lead, navigating a difficult family circumstance and the friendship she develops with Rafi gives her the security to understand herself and grow through the story. Set in Costa Rica, this story explores the mission of wildlife sanctuaries trying to protect and help animals in danger and the focus here is on turtle eggs being poached. Woven through the atory and dealt with in a sensitive but direct way is about motherhood and what challenges some women can face in trying to become mothers and the effect that has on both their own mental health and their family around them.
I adored this book and the illustrations by Levi Pinfold and just stunning.

This is by far my favourite of Hannah’s books and definitely her best yet, so much emotion!! I’ve read through the night and now can’t sleep, just brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻
