Avocado the Turtle: The One and Only

“Be yourself and embrace the moment, even if others rejected you.”  - Avocado the Turtle.

Avocado is not a normal turtle. She is rejected by the other turtles for being too friendly. One day, they decide she should no longer be welcomed in their turtle group, and she is sent away. Upset at first, she eventually meets new friends and starts to understand it doesn't matter what people want her to be. Join Avocado on her journey to find her true self.
