About the Book

When Samantha Steadman starts high school at a boarding school in the Ukahlamba Drakensberg mountains, little does she know that she will soon be engaged in an ecological war for the survival of the endangered leatherback turtle. Their adventures range from dangerous night-time skirmishes with illegal fishermen, to crazy antics for television cameras. Samantha and her friends - rich and sassy Jessie Delaney, and cabinet minister's daughter Nomusa Gule - take the fight from the classroom to the open seas. Back at school, they have to deal with romances and heartbreaks, a joint musical production with the neighbouring boys' school, encounters with an eccentric bunch of teachers, conflicts with parents and skirmishes with bitter rivals. Together they will need to find the strength to cope, and the hope that comes from knowing that individuals can make a difference.

About the Author :
A born and bred Johannesburger, Joanne Macgregor is a Counselling Psychologist in private practice, where she works primarily with victims of trauma and crime. She started her professional life as a high school English Teacher and has always been in love with words.

Review :
"If you're a parent with kids aged between the ages of 13 - 15 and are looking for a good, clean, fun read with an important message to boot, then South African author, Joanne MacGregor's book, Turtle Walk is one read you'll want to consider... Highly readable and filled with quips that will be sure to bring a smile to your face, Turtle Walk is the kind of book you'd want your teens to read."--Tammy February "Women24" "Turtle Walk is a book that shows you how to react to situations, such as peer pressure, but it also teaches children how important other living creatures are to our world. Everything has a purpose. When I finished the last page I was a little sad that the book had ended, but happy too, because I felt as though I had learnt something really important... Everyone will enjoy this story, but I highly recommend it to Teens who love animals, romance novels and mysteries. I can't wait to read the next book!"--Jenna-Laine Fuller "Puku"
