Description
"Everyone loves turtles. And no wonder: long-lived, unhurried, and ancient, these shelled reptiles are fascinating.
But turtles are also endlessly surprising. There are turtles with soft shells, turtles with googly eyes, turtles with necks longer than their bodies, and turtles whose shells glow in the dark!
And each turtle, of each of the more than 300 kinds, is an individual. You’ll meet some of them here: Lonesome George, the last of his kind on Earth. And Myrtle, the 90-year-old green sea turtle, who has 7,000 followers on Facebook.
Turtles also have talents you would never suspect. A turtle hasn't got ears like ours. But a turtle can hear you whisper.,What questions might you ask a turtle? You’ll find many of the answers here -- and perhaps be inspired to help at a time when these reptiles, who evolved at the same time as the dinosaurs, face the deadliest dangers of their more that 240-million-year history.
How can you help? Turn these gorgeously illustrated pages and find out.",Publisher.
