Turtles

     What do turtles eat? How are their babies hatched? Why can a turtle pull his head inside his shell? What kinds of turtles make the best pets? How should pet turtles be fed, and where should they be kept? All these and many other questions are answered in this natural science picture book for young readers. The text is in large, clear type, and there are many illustrations on each page. The author, Wilfrid Swancourt Bronson (1894-1985), was an American natural-history artist and a prolific writer/illustrator of children's books on various aspects of animal life.
