All the way across the sand — and all the way back again.
Out of ShellA storybook series Save me a shell
Small turtles · Big feelings · One sunny beach
Our first story is here.
A gentle storybook series about two little turtles with big feelings.
Psst — tap her, she blinks. Tap him, too.
Heading home
Walking home the long way.
On purpose. Holding hands the whole way.
Press play, take a peek
Little clips & moments
Small pieces of their days, saved like pressed flowers.
The blink
Blink, and she’s still smiling.
Olga’s famous blink. It took practice.
Hello
That’s them.
Hello, hello — you found us.
A moment
Snack time.
One big slice, shared bite by bite.
The giggles
Something was very funny.
Nobody remembers what. It doesn’t matter.
Picnic day
Blanket down. Cupcakes out.
Best part of the day, by unanimous vote.
Before playtime
She climbs. He spots.
That’s the deal, and it works both ways.
Getting ready
Bags packed.
Somebody is ready for launch day. Somebody else is carrying.
Rain or shine
Still their favorite day.
One umbrella is plenty, if you stand close.
Last page for today
Make a wish.
See you at launch, under these same stars.
The neighbors
Meet the turtles
Three faces you’ll be seeing a lot of.
Drew
Calm, steady, and always in his bow tie. Drew is in no hurry at all — unless Olga calls.
Olga
She found Drew when the town lights had him turned around — then they got lost together, and found their way back together. They’ve been finding the way ever since.
Alison
Golden hair, a cream cardigan, and the steadiest smile on the street.
Where to next?
Pick a door
Drew & Olga.
Two shells, side by side — that’s the whole story so far.

Seven little games with Drew and Olga. Tap one to open it — tap it again to tuck it away.
Shell-Nell Catch
Slide your finger to run Drew back and forth — catch the purses and shoes Olga drops in his shopping bag. Three misses ends the game… unless the shaking boxes gift you a stack of cash for another life!

Golden shoes are worth extra · a wobbling box might drop cash — catch it for another life · the star slows everything down for a breath.
Tap Drew and Olga to say hello — sometimes they hide!
Color Drew
Pick a color, then tap a part of Drew to fill it.
A quiet little game
Leaf Catch
Slide a finger across the garden to guide Drew. He gathers leaves in his hands; leaves that drift past simply settle on the grass.
Basket
0 of 12 leaves in this basket
Paused
Leaves are drifting down.
Keyboard: tap the garden, then use the left and right arrow keys. No timer and no game over.
Shell Curling
Press on the shell, pull back, and let go — the shell slides up the ice. Land it in the rings by the house: gold middle is best! You have six shells, and a gentle bump can nudge a friend closer… or knock one away.

Keyboard: tap the ice, then aim with the arrow keys and press Enter to throw. No timer — just sliding.

Tip: a gentle pull drops the shell right on top of the stack — one good hit can bring the whole pile down, and Olga loves that.
