The Friends Club Denise Hirota

Casey the Turtle lives near a creek. He has lots of friends, but most of them are not perfect. Casey has a hard time hearing, and Benjamin Bunny can't see clearly. Flick the Woodpecker has a crooked beak, and so he is hard to understand at times.
Casey, Benjamin, Flick, and the rest of their friends join together to create the Friends Club, which is devoted to helping one another in times of need.
Shelley the Turtle is the prettiest animal by the creek, and she knows it! She is cruel to all the other animals that are not perfect, like she thinks she is. One day, Shelley is trapped by ivy in the creek and rolls over, needing help.
Will the Friends Club be able to help Shelley in her time of need? You'll have to read to find out!
