The Little Turtle

As the little turtle was born he already knew what was on his back. He knew his shell was a home. Everyone else thought he was crazy and it was a curse. As the turtles were hatching and getting into the water the little turtle made some turtle friends. Some of the turtles were confused about the oval hump on their back. The little turtle told them what a home is. A home is a place where we sleep and make memories.Then the other turtles started to believe him and started to question the little turtle. When he told the others about a home they told everyone else and started to believe the little turtle's story. To this day all of the turtles across the globe now know what's on their back, it is a home.
