A Turtle's Tale - Softcover

Mama and Papa Turtle are anxiously awaiting the arrival of their little hatchlings when a violent storm destroys their nest, separating them from their babies. Their dreams of parenthood rest in the jaws of a family of gators who are determined to reunite them. Inspired by the author's journey through gestational surrogacy, this book serves as a heartwarming tale of family and love as well as a great tool for talking to children about the beautiful gift of surrogacy.

Crystal Henry is a freelance writer glad to be back in her native Texas land. She is a University of Florida alumna who stays true to her Florida writing roots through her work with Our Town Magazine and her award-winning column, Naked Salsa. She is a boobs out breastfeeding advocate and semi-crunchy mom whose work has been featured on sites such as Scary Mommy, eHow, LIVESTRONG and ModernMom. Her world-domination-smart husband and two hilariously inappropriate little girls constantly provide fodder for her column and #preschoolproblems blog. But having two newborns of her own broke the baby fever that once burned deep within her. And instead she rents out her oven to another woman's bun and documents her surrogacy journey with humor and honesty through her blog, Her Eggs My Basket.
