Book spotlight for Middle Grade Carousel March 2022: Check the Yellow Pages features the book TURTLE IN PARADISE by Jennifer L. Holm

Life isn’t like the movies. But, then again, 11-year-old Turtle is no Shirley Temple. She’s smart and tough and has seen enough of the world not to expect a Hollywood ending. After all, it’s 1935 and jobs and money and sometimes even dreams are scarce. So when Turtle’s mama gets a job housekeeping for a lady who doesn’t like kids, Turtle says goodbye without a tear and heads off to Key West, Florida to live with relatives she’s never met.
