Cecilia, a newly hatched sea turtle, starts life with a painful jolt. Because she has blue legs, rather than brown like the other turtles, she is mocked and left behind when the other hatchlings climb out of the nest. Alone, she struggles through many twists and turns to reach the light that summons her from above. Finally reaching the top of the nest, she is dismayed to discover that the light is coming from an orb in the sky that she will never be able to reach. But the moonlight reaches out to her, lighting the pathway to the sea, and transforming her brown shell to the color of the blue sea, her home. Cecelia's Journey to the Sea is an allegory of the individual's journey through alienation, struggle, and transformation to wholeness. The beautiful soft watercolor illustrations enrich the message of hope to both children and adults.
