Every summer, loggerhead sea turtles crawl out of the ocean in the middle of the night to lay their eggs on the same beaches where they were born. 🐢
In this adventure, Charli Safari heads out before sunrise for a real turtle patrol on a Florida beach, where she finds fresh tracks in the sand, discovers a nest, and counts the eggs herself. Then she visits the Marine Science Center in Ponce Inlet, Florida, where real scientists rescue and rehabilitate sea turtles and work to protect our coastlines.
It's the kind of book that makes kids stop and look twice at the beach they've walked a hundred times.
Perfect for ages 4–8 and any kid who's ever found something in the sand and wondered what left it there.
🌿 Part of the Charli Safari conservation series, because curious kids grow into people who protect the planet.
What your child will learn:
- How loggerhead sea turtles nest, and what happens from egg to hatchling
- What early morning turtle patrols are and why they matter
- How the Marine Science Center in Ponce Inlet rescues and rehabilitates sea turtles
- How to take care of our beaches and protect marine animals
About the Charli Safari Series
Charli Safari is a children's picture book series for ages 3–8 built around one idea: conservation should feel exciting, not scary. Each book follows Charli on a real-world adventure to learn about endangered and at-risk animals, the places they live, and how young readers can be part of protecting them.
Charli Safari and the Loggerhead Turtle Tracks is book 2 in the series. Books are printed on a professional offset press, built to survive the read-it-again-and-again years. 📚
A note on why this one matters
Loggerhead sea turtles have been listed as a threatened species for decades. Florida's beaches are some of the most important nesting grounds in the world, and they need protecting. This book was written so kids could fall in love with loggerheads right here in their own backyard, and feel like they can actually do something about it.
