This title could be very cute or very slow, depending on how it's produced. It introduces children to da Vinci and gets them thinking of what he was like as a child. Having a turtle behind his inventions is a humorous and creative way to get kids' attention. The last scene hooks you - when chaos reins and an invention is formed out of the disaster. Another hook - the tension when da Vinci thinks the turtle is getting baked. This is good, clean fun with a fun ending.
When young Leonardo da Vinci, a busboy, was asked to make turtle soup, one of the turtles begged for his life! Tuttle, the turtle, tried to convince Leonardo that there is a big world out there, and he could show him all about it, if he would just take a chance.
