Except Antarctica! by Todd Sturgell


Turtles are found on every continent EXCEPT Antarctica. But not for long! When a David Attenborough-esque narrator explains that turtles are found everywhere except Antarctica, one determined turtle sets out to prove him wrong. After recruiting other non-Antarctica animals along the way--much to the narrator's dismay--the turtle and his adventurous friends travel through fields, forests, and cross and entire ocean to reach their goal. But what exactly do they do once they get there? Except Antarctica! by Todd Sturgell was published in July 2021. 

I read this with Ms. Cassie before bed and she thought it was so funny how the turtle and his friends did not want to listen to the narrator in the story. It's kind of like when a kid wants to prove you wrong. Such as taking them to the doctor because they are sick as dog and all of sudden in front of the doctor they are all better running up and down the waiting room. The illustrations are great and really help the readers know what is happening in this crazy story.
