A poignant, rich and thrilling adventure

Gold is one of the best writers around when it comes to eco-adventure and Turtle Moon, which culminates in a breathtakingly exciting rescue mission, is just as good (if not better than) her Waterstones Children’s Book Prize-Winning The Last Bear

Such clever, courageous storytelling. I adored it

A glorious, shining adventure story with nature and wildness at its heart

Hannah Gold writes hope and heartbreak and healing with astonishing perfection. Not only will it make readers want to fight bravely for a better world, but it encourages them to be kinder to themselves, too. Turtle Moon is, without a doubt, her best yet

Beautiful, hopeful and heart-expanding. I love this book so much

I can see why so many children are falling in love with Hannah Gold’s stories. Turtle Moon is gorgeous … full of heart and hope

About Turtle Moon

Silver Trevelon’s parents aren’t happy. They haven’t been happy since the nursery they decorated started gathering cobwebs, waiting for the baby brother or sister that never came. So when Silver’s dad is invited to paint at a turtle rescue centre in Costa Rica, she hopes it’ll be just the  adventure the family needs.

Under the hot tropical sun, Silver settles into life at the animal centre. She even witnesses a rare  sighting of a leatherback turtle nesting on the beach. But when the turtle’s eggs are stolen, events take a dark and dangerous turn. Can Silver and her new friends track them down before it's too late? It’ll mean journeying into the heart of the jungle and uncovering long-buried secrets.

Turtle Moon is available in the UK now.
