George the turtle has many friends. Ryan the clownfish, Edward the king salmon, and Henderson the humpback whale are some of his best friends. One day, George fins a magical necklace that has been lost for generations. When a natural disaster occurs, George must use all of the magic he's learned to try to save his world.

From the publisher: “When George the sea turtle finds a magical shell necklace, he doesn't know it has mythical powers. But with the help of his friends, George learns how to control the powers of the necklace. When they receive news of a giant tsunami headed for the San Francisco Bay, George begins to worry. He is just a sea turtle, and only seven years old. Will he be able to save the Bay from destruction?”
