Finny is a bit nervous on the first day of school, but Myrtle the Turtle is even more anxious and literally hides her shell! Surely Myrtle will come out of her shell when their teacher, a whale named Mr. Magellan, has them draw and present their favorite things to the class! Nope. Myrtle is even more nervous than ever! Being a good friend, Finny helps Myrtle through her anxiety, and the tiny turtle finally shows her drawing to everyone.
