Una maeana brillante, una tortuguita verde tomaba el sol en la superficie de Turtle Cove, donde habea llegado la noche anterior. Nacie de un nido en una costa a cientos de millas de distancia y ha pasado los primeros seis aeos de su vida nadando en el oceano. Aque, en Turtle Cove, conoce a los habitantes: una sabia tortuga anciana, Kato y otras criaturas marinas. Admira las caracteresticas enicas de un pulpo y una estrella de mar, y desearea poder nadar con un cardumen de peces. Observa las gaviotas y las golondrinas de mar volando libremente por encima y comienza a cuestionar su identidad.


Makana es un Regalo es la historia de la besqueda de una joven tortuga marina para comprender su propesito enico, quien y por que es, mientras espera que le den su nombre. Una maeana, mientras tiene hambre para desayunar, confunde una bolsa de plestico con una medusa, la muerde como hacen muchas tortugas marinas y debe buscar ayuda para sobrevivir esta experiencia demasiado comen y potencialmente mortal.


Al final, entiende que todas las criaturas son necesarias para ayudarse y cuidarse unas a otras; el tambien tiene un propesito enico y esencial; que la vida es un regalo, y el tambien. En Hawaiano, Makana significa regalo, y por eso recibe su nombre.


Se incluye una guea de discusien y actividades y recursos. Los nieos aprenderen sobre los comienzos biolegicos de la vida de una tortuga marina, ase como su antiguo legado, significado y simbolismo, y la importancia de su proteccien ecolegica. Edades 4 8.


One bright morning a little green sea turtle basks on the surface of Turtle Cove, where he arrived the night before. He hatched from a nest on a shore hundreds of miles away, and has spent the first six years of his life swimming through the ocean. Here in Turtle Cove he meets the inhabitants-a wise elder turtle, Kato, and other sea creatures. He admires the unique features of an octopus and starfish, and wishes he could swim with a school of fish. He observes the gulls and terns flying freely overhead, and begins to question his identity.


Makana is a Gift is the story of a young sea turtle's quest to understand his unique purpose, who and why he is, while waiting to be given his name. One morning while hungry for breakfast, he mistakes a plastic bag for a jellyfish, takes a bite as many sea turtles do, and must seek help to survive this too common, life-threatening experience.


In the end, he understands that all creatures are needed to help and care for each other; he too has a unique and essential purpose; that life is a gift, and so is he. In Hawaiian, Makana means gift, and thus he receives his name.


A "Discussion & Activities Guide" and "Resources" are included. Children will learn about the biological beginnings of a sea turtle's life as well as their ancient legacy, their significance and symbolism, and the importance of their ecological protection. Watercolor illustrations are vibrant and life-like. Ages 4 8.

Sturdy and holding up so far!
Size: Small 15", Style: 3 Knot, Pattern Name: Dog
This is a quality pull toy that my Yorkie ("Finnegan") loves. It is holding together well as my dog can be a maniac at times. Moderate chewing has not hurt this toy. I do not buy toys with squeakers in them as they worry me. Finn entertains himself and then brings toy to me for a tug of war. I recommend this item. Good bang for the buck!

EXCELLENT QUALITY
Size: Medium 20", Style: 3 Knot, Pattern Name: Dog
I have a German Shepherd/Pointer mix who is 10 months old. He has been in the throes of teething and destructive exploration. He's chewed up clothing and shoes. He chewed a hole in our couch and one in our brand new mattress (He was never left home alone until this point but as my mother came to visit and my boyfriend was back at work, I had no choice but to trust him alone for about an hour a day for 3 or 4 days... he clearly didn't earn that trust). He loves ropes because he can gnaw them, whip them around, and play tug of war or fetch with them at any given time. We love ropes because they keep him occupied and relieve his desire to chew things. Unfortunately, he was destroying rope after rope after rope. Some ropes were worrisome because they would quickly start fraying and falling apart. We would have to help remove strings he has swallowed from his behind while he was out doing his business... My boyfriend's mother picked up a Mammoth TireBiter tire and rope toy for him but it was much too small. Still, he loved it and it stood up very well to his chompers despite being way too small/weak for him. Looking for a larger version of the Mammoth TireBiters, I stumbled across this rope toy and gave it a shot. Let me tell you, I don't think I will ever buy rope toys from any other brand! We have had this rope for over a month and it is still going strong. It does show some small signs of wear and tear but you would swear we bought it last week. It is very strong and durable. It has held up through many long gnawing sessions. It has been put through countless hours of fetch and tug of war with no signs of giving out any time soon. I am so in love with this rope and so is my pup!

Only for tug-a-war play.
Size: Small 15", Style: 3 Knot, Pattern Name: Dog, Size: Small 15", Style: 3 Knot, Pattern Name: Dog
This should only be advertised as a tug-a-war dog toy. I gave the toy to our 6 month old puppy and in, not even, an hour it was ripped apart. He’s not big enough for the larger ones yet. Not sure if I’ll try the next size larger.
