When I was working in the small town of Ave Maria-I was asked to come up with some ideas to market the Water Park. I thought about it for a long time and then this popped into my head. A hatchling sea turtle is pushing his way through the sand for his eventual trip to the Ocean. All is brothers and sisters are in the sand- some have already made their way to the water. Some of the other turtles are waiting for Sammy and the rest. They want to keep the family together...Well as luck would have it 10 year old Billy Crosby is at the beach with his parents and just before his family is about to leave while his mom is picking up and dad is loading the car...Billy decides to throw rocks at some seagulls. It's while taunting and chasing the gulls Billy chances on tiny Sammy just breakling out of the ground. The rest of the story begins when Sammy grows up at Billy's House and joins the family eventually living in an above ground pool at the family home in Estero Florida. When Billy turns 18, while the family is celebrating Sammy makes his mind up to finally begin his long journey home. This is a children's story that will have Sammy meeting Sally the Sea Turtle and other friends as he tries to find his way. I have been working on this idea for a couple of years and hope to draft a finished copy for submission to publishers in 2013.
Let me know what you think by leaving comments.
