"A sweet read-aloud for first-time tortoise owners." --Kirkus, starred review Could there be any better pet than a puppy? One young girl is about to find out. From beloved author Dave Keane and acclaimed illustrator K.G. Campbell, a laugh-out-loud story of unexpected friendship! When the spunky, loveable narrator receives a tortoise for her birthday, instead of the cuddly puppy she’s longed for her entire life, she’s more than a little disappointed. But while her new lump of a pet isn’t what she dreamed of, it doesn’t take long—between tortoise-on-skateboard walks, sparkly shell makeovers, and a lemonade stand selling chances to hold a real life tortoise—for the little girl to change her mind—sort of. But when her pet goes missing, all she wants is to be reunited with her new best friend.

Keeping Greek tortoise properly. ★ Pet guide about species-appropriate feeding, keeping, care and overwintering ★ The following questions will be answered to you among others. How to keep tortoises? How to overwinter tortoises? What do tortoises eat? What do tortoises need in the terrarium? What do tortoises eat in winter? What do tortoises drink? What do tortoises like? Where do I have to register tortoises? Why do tortoises hibernate? How do tortoises hibernate? If you want to keep tortoises, then this attitude should take place as close to nature and species-appropriate as possible. This means not only that the tortoise needs enough space and regular exercise, but also that you get the possibility of a necessary hibernation. Also in terms of care and nutrition, the tortoises have their own individual needs and must not, for example, as many tortoise owners often do wrong, eat everything there is fresh fruit and vegetables. So that your tortoise later lacks nothing and can lead a healthy long life, I have taken the trouble to write this very detailed and really detailed guide. In this guide you will not only learn everything about the attitude, the way of life and the diet, I also go here specifically to things like how you best transport your turtle, where you register your turtle or what diseases can occur in a not species-appropriate attitude. But that's not all, here you really learn everything you should know about your new pet, respectively want to know.
