Eye of the Turtle - Gloria Barnett

In the first of a series of adventure stories, eleven-year old Lucy is moving away from everything she has ever known. The Caribbean is a long way from London, but she soon finds friends, Jack and Solomon, who introduce her to the beach and the ocean's wonderous creatures. As Lucy finds out, plastic poses a serious threat to the ocean environment, and mitigating that danger leads her to find the courage to learn new skills and brave the ocean deep, which of course, just might be full of sea monsters. "This is an exciting story with a twist. You can learn scientific facts and understand more about keeping the oceans healthy, as well as reading a really good adventure!" Gloria Barnett is an award-winning author, educator, and a real-life explorer. She is a leading voice in the emerging genre of cli-fi for young people.
