About this listen

A heartwarming, inspiring story about perseverance, patience, and discovering the strength within.

Tobi the Turtle is always last—last to wake up, last to finish a race, last to cross the river. No matter how hard he tries, the world around him moves too fast. He watches his friends dash ahead, wondering if he’ll ever be able to keep up.

But when a powerful storm arrives, flooding the river and turning the land into chaos, Tobi’s slow, steady pace becomes his greatest strength. While others panic and rush, he takes one careful step at a time. And in the end, he learns a powerful lesson: success isn’t about speed—it’s about never giving up.

Perfect for young listeners ages 4-8, this book teaches:

  • Resilience & Perseverance: Moving at your own pace is still moving forward.
  • Self-Acceptance: Being different isn’t a weakness—it’s a strength.
  • Emotional Growth: Overcoming challenges through patience and determination.

Tobi the Turtle is a must-have for parents, educators, and caregivers looking to inspire confidence and self-belief in children. Ideal for bedtime, classroom discussions, and gifts for young learners.

If your child loves books like The Little Engine That Could or Giraffes Can’t Dance, they will fall in love with Tobi’s journey.
