Turtle in Paradise by Jennifer L. HolmMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
11 year old Turtle moves to Key West to stay with relatives she doesn't even know so her mom can take a job in New Jersey. Her trip to Florida proves to be an eye-opening experience for the tough, little girl who wishes her life were a little more like Little Orphan Annie's. With tons of humor, Jennifer Holm tells the story of a girl growing up during the depression who keeps a positive outlook on life despite the terrible situations around. Funny and uplifting!
