About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their child is frustrated that a friend has different interests or won't play the 'right' way. This gentle story follows two best friends, Turtle and Snake, on a trip to the beach. Turtle loves to swim and splash in the cool water, while Snake loves to snooze on the hot sand. Their different preferences create a small, sweet dilemma. Through simple dialogue and charming illustrations, they find a clever and collaborative way to enjoy the day together, respecting each other's needs. It's a perfect, lighthearted introduction to the concept of compromise and celebrating differences for young children.
