He didn’t even know which way to swim because he had gotten all turned around in the riptide. He was so-o-o frightened.
His squeals grew softer and softer. Suddenly, he heard some other squeals! His friends, the Sea Gulls, were flying all around him, talking to him. They told Topsey they had seen his two friends swimming back to shore and his friends told them that Topsey was lost.
Many of the Sea Gulls rested on the water beside Topsey, which was hard to do since the waves were very choppy! They said, “Topsey, follow us and we will talk to you and lead you home.” The Sea Gulls that were still flying said that they would go and tell Turtella that Topsey was on his way home.
The other two turtles had gone on ahead and told Turtella what had happened. When Topsey and the Sea Gulls arrived at his home, Turtella came out to greet Topsey and told him how worried she had been. They all thanked their friends, the Sea Gulls, for rescuing Topsey. Topsey’s two friends said that they were sorry it had been so rough. Topsey and Turtella said it is hard to predict what rip currents will do, but they were glad that everything worked out okay.
