The Tortoise Tales - 9781480850743

A standout from many books today focusing on the creepy, the silly, or the dark, "The Tortoise Tales" offers us animal stories with substance, targeting readers 9-12 years old, but fun to read at any age. Nine tales mostly fiction pique our interest in nature and wildlife and help us understand it's not always the strongest, the best looking or the smartest that can save the day. In separate stories we find a huge old tortoise who knows stuff, a monkey with a personal hygiene issue, an embarrassed fireless dragon, lazy caddisfly larvae under siege, a brave grackle orphan, a minority goat with identity problems, a clever chameleon, a vain magpie queen, and an eagle and owl mystery sleuth duo. They discover courage, trust, compassion, and teamwork for changing the most extreme challenges into awesomeness. Suspense, humor, and cool info mix to create characters you're not likely to forget.
