As a homeschooling mom, we found this book very informative about turtles. We did a unit on turtles and found this book to be an excellent book to use in our study of turtles. My daughter enjoyed the book and so did my 23 month old son who loved the turtle pictures. I like these Let's Read and Find out Science books. They are excellent way to teach your children about different science topics.
