Product Description
Tudley, a pond-living painted turtle, adopts other animals' behaviors simply because he doesn't know he can't! He flies like a bird, sings like a katydid, hops like a frog, and glows like a firefly. All the while, he uses his special behaviors to help other animals. But, will Tudley's new friends help him when he needs help? The For Creative Minds educational section includes fun facts about painted turtles, ruby-throated hummingbirds, fireflies, leopard frogs, and true katydids. It also contains a Make a Hopping Tudley craft, a recipe for hummingbird sugar water, a Creative Sparks section, and a Food for Thought section.Product Videos
