Wonderfully written

All about turtles is wonderfully written and beautifully illustrated it really made information about turtles interesting for my 8, 5 and 3 year old.

Great Book!

I am a six year old boy, and I learned so much more about turtles from this book. I thought turtles do not hibernate, but the book told me that they hibernate. I liked the pictures very much. the illustrations are very good, they look realistic, the paintings do not look like paintings, they look like real pictures.

Great!

I am a 11 year old girl and my friend and I are thinking of buying a turtle. We found this book extremly helpful and for any turtle lover it is a must have!
