I'm a Tiny Turtle!

Check out this video of "Whispering Wally" called "The Trouble with Treasure." I play Torrie, a tiny sea turtle. Based on characters developed by Kevin S. Collier and Kristen Collier. Isn't Torrie cute?

TORRIE THE SEA TURTLE learns many lessons from her guide and mentor Wally the whale in their story time adventures. Torrie represents the curiosity of youth in all of us as well as the drive to explore and discover new things in a unknown environment. So, it's good to know that the young at heart with a huge guardian like Wally the whale can experience wonderful discoveries in the oceans with safety and security.
