Description - Tortoises by Melissa Gish
Heavy shell creeps ... Clawed feet dig ... Meet the tortoise! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, Tortoises treats middle-grade researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of this remarkable reptile. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the animal's relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a Brazilian legend about the tortoise adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
