Book excerpt: SYDNEY TAYLOR BOOK AWARD WINNER A boy who has spent his life living inside a shell discovers the importance of taking chance in this "winner" (Booklist, starred review) of a friendship story that's perfect for fans of Wonder. Seventh grade is not going well for Will Levine. Kids at school bully him because of his funny-looking chin. And for his bar mitzvah community service project, he's forced to go to the hospital to visit RJ, an older boy struggling with an incurable disease. At first, the boys don't get along, but then RJ shares his bucket list with Will. Among the things he wants to do: ride a roller coaster; go to a school dance; swim in the ocean. To Will, happiness is hanging out in his room, alone, preferably with the turtles he collects. But as RJ's disease worsens, Will realizes he needs to tackle the bucket list on his new friend's behalf before it's too late. It seems like an impossible mission, way outside Will's comfort zone. But as he completes each task with RJ's guidance, Will learns that life is too short to live in a shell. "Everyone deserves a friend like Will Levine." --Lynne Kelly, author of Song for a Whale

Download or read book Eighty Years with Tortoises written by Kay Arneberg Booth and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Will you enjoy this book? Will it help you? Here's hoping that both come true. It would be wonderful if I could know the reactions of the readers—if any. Readers, that is. Once I was asked, "Why do you do all this when it takes so much time and effort? Tortoises can't even wag their tails when you come home or sit on your lap and purr. Sounds rather silly to me." There was no answer. Why do I do it? It is impossible to explain. Those who do such things know why, and those who don't—well, they will just have to keep on wondering why some of us will miss a meal or a party to help a tortoise dig a nest or sit for hours just watching or get up in the middle of the night to coax a baby to eat or to be sure that it is not too warm or too cold. There isn't much more to say. Almost everything I can think of is in the book. Now you know what has been going on around me for eighty plus years. There have been many, many nests dug and lots of babies. Other persons have even been helped to successfully incubate and hatch desert tortoise eggs. So now you see, it seems that I have come full circle. When I was very young, dirt was thrown all over me by a bunch of chickens. Now when I am old (the very was left out on purpose!), there is dirt thrown all over me by tortoises. Some life! It really has been though. Actually I was very content with the other chickens, and now I'm quite happy with the other tortoises. The chickens thought of me as just another chicken, and now it seems that I am just another tortoise. Bye now. "Fantastic! A really needed book. It's about time someone cared" (L. & G. Nowak). "Equate tortoises with chickens?" (M. Stein). "Used to think all tortoises were just the same, but no more" (E. Burnett). "Never thought a tortoise needed care—or water. But I'm learning. Good book. Especially for the beginner" (L. Swiger). "Didn't realize there was so much to know about just an old tortoise" (W. Smith).

Book excerpt: Here are some truly fun and convenient kids' activities with the emphasis on saving money by focusing on easy creative kids activities at home. And since they are mostly 'natural' you'll be using the free resources provided abundantly by Nature (and your pantry). I have a unique interest and expertise in finding fun kids activities at home. For most grandfathers having grand children means a time of just enjoying the occasional visit. Not the case when I became a full time live-in grandfather to my newborn granddaughter. In the end, at my own house, I spent more quality time with her than even most Dads do in a lifetime. This meant remembering, and finding, new and fun activities to share. This time sharing activities from the day after she was born to a schoolgirl nudging teenager years, became one of the best times of my life. And the activities we shared helped to make it so.

Download or read book The Map Turtle and Sawback Atlas written by Peter V. Lindeman and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2013-12-02 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering all facets of the biology of a little-known genus, Peter V. Lindeman’s lavishly illustrated Map Turtle and Sawback Atlas is both a scientific treatise and an engaging introduction to a striking group of turtles. Map turtles and sawbacks, found in and along rivers from Texas to Florida and north to the Great Lakes, fascinate ecologists and evolutionary biologists. Over a short geologic time span, these turtles achieved exceptional biological diversification. Their diets are also exceptionally diverse, and a significant difference in size distinguishes males from females. Adult males are typically half or less the shell length of adult females, making map turtles and sawbacks the champions of sexual dimorphism among not only turtles but all four-legged vertebrates. Aesthetics also draw biologists and hobbyists to map turtles and sawbacks. While the male Sabine map turtle may look to some like a “pencil-necked geek,” as the author puts it, markings on the shell, limbs, head, and neck make map turtles among the most attractive turtles on earth. Sawbacks feature a striking ridge down their shell. Few turtles show themselves off to such advantage. Photographs included here of Graptemys basking poses reveal to what improbable heights these turtles can scale, the spread-eagle sunning stances they adopt, the stacking of individuals on a crowded site, and the heads that warily watch the world above the waterline. In lively prose, Lindeman details the habitat, diet, reproduction and life history, natural history, and population abundance of each species. A section on conservation status summarizes official state, federal, and international designations for each species, along with efforts toward population management and recovery as well as habitat preservation. The author also outlines promising avenues for future research, ranging from the effects of global climate change on populations to strategies for combating expansion of the pet trade.
