The Duck and the Turtle on the Upper West Side

The idea of a story about a turtle and a duck came to me while walking around the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis reservoir located in Central Park, NY. It saddened me when I noticed a few turtles in the water with no way to leave that reservoir.
I purposely chose the characters to be two females as I realize how important it is for us as females to develop trust and help each other.
I hope this will be a first in a series where we can follow Ella and Jupiter through their experiences and journeys discovering the world.
