Paperback. Zustand: Good. A poignant tale of environmental pollution and recovery with beautiful watercolor illustrations.   On a bluff at the bend in the river stood a turtle carved of stone.

Zustand: Very Good. : Este es un cuento conmovedor sobre la contaminación ambiental y la recuperación, con hermosas ilustraciones en acuarela. En un risco en la curva del río se erigía una tortuga tallada en piedra. Durante muchos años fue los ojos de Manitou, vigilando y bendiciendo al pueblo Delaware que lo visitaba cada verano. Pero a medida que pasaba el tiempo, menos niños venían a saludar a la tortuga. Ahora observa con tristeza y temor cómo llegan extraños, destruyen la tierra y amenazan su propia existencia. ¿Puede la tortuga, que una vez fue un símbolo de esperanza y renovación, ser salvada?
