Facts About The Eastern Box Turtle (A Picture Book For Kids 42) Kindle Edition

The book is informative on the turtles, where they should live, what they should eat. How captivity shortens their life span. How to tell a girl from a boy. It may not ""tell all" but it's a great place to start. Great pictures!

This book was great to teach my students about NC facts and symbols!!

Do you like animals? I do! You should read this book. Did you know some box turtles live for 100 years? And some can live for 50 years. Female eastern box turtles lay 3 to 8 eggs. They cover the small white eggs with dirt. Eastern box turtles have claws for digging but not for fighting. Their bone hard shells keep their soft bodies safe. This book is interesting. You should read this book. You will learn lots of things about eastern box turtles. I recommend it.

I found several typos in the Kindle addition, which made it hard for my 8 yr old to read. Otherwise, it was cute and cool.
