Synopsis:
This digital story will follow a sea turtle as it hatches and attempts to emerge from its nest and enter the ocean, a journey that is complicated by humans on and around the beach. The sea turtle will awake in the daytime but will hear loud, disorienting voices and will hide back in its nest. At night, the sea turtle will emerge and start heading towards the brightest light, not realizing it’s a person’s porch light. When the light turns off, the turtle will realize it’s lost but will reorient itself towards the next brightest light, the moon over the ocean, and will make it to the ocean.
