Sinopse

A graphic novel adaptation of the beloved, bestselling Newbery Honor-winning novel. Eleven-year-old Turtle is smart and tough and has seen enough of the world not to expect a Hollywood ending. After all, it´s 1935 and money--and sometimes even dreams--is scarce. So when Turtle´s mother gets a job housekeeping for a lady who doesn´t like kids, Turtle heads off to Florida to live with relatives. Florida´s like nothing Turtle´s ever seen before, though. It´s full of ragtag boy cousins, family secrets to unravel . . . and even a little bit of fun. Before she knows what´s happened, Turtle finds herself coming out of her shell. And as she does, her world opens up in the most unexpected ways. Inspired by family stories, three-time Newbery Honor winner Jennifer L. Holm blends family lore with America´s past in this charming gem of a novel, now adapted into graphic novel form by rising star Savanna Ganucheau.
