What is Emerald and The Pearly Turtles about?

Emerald is thrilled about the rare pearly turtle migration passing over Scallop City for the first time in fifty years. Eager to share the experience, she promises to watch it with her friends, her mum and stepdad King Auster, and her dad and his girlfriend Sirena—all at the same time. Juggling multiple commitments proves challenging. Will Emerald manage to witness the magical turtles up close, or will they slip away unnoticed?
