Excerpt from Secret Lives of Turtles and Tortoises
RELUCTANTLY SEEKING INDEPENDENCE
Shortly after Niki and Georgia began living separately, they had a conflict regarding Georgia’s face peeking out from under their adjoining wall. When Georgia moved into her new area beside Niki, she started digging, as turtles normally do, in the corner of her living space. Conveniently for Georgia, the corner she chose took her under the wall she shared with Niki. She carved out a spot just large enough for her head to fit under the divider, allowing her hours of entertainment spent spying on Niki. Interestingly, her turtle-mom didn’t notice this at first. Apparently, Niki was enjoying her solitude away from her pesky youngster. For several days Georgia’s head appeared frequently below the wall; she was watching Niki’s every move. Then one day I felt obligated to show Niki her youngster's surreptitious surveillance, so I pointed to Georgia’s face below the wall.

Secret Lives of Turtles and Tortoises Ciri Johnson Reviews
Secret Lives of Turtles and Tortoises is a very delightful book. Ciri Johnson has done a wonderful job at capturing personalities of each individual turtle and tortoise in her pictures.
The book is full of wonderful information and experiences. Ciri has given a view of these animals for how they really are and in a way most people don't think of them as being. These animals are truly more then we give them credit for.
I love the way the book was written along with the pictures. I can't wait to share this book with my children along with others.
I am looking forward to seeing more books by Ciri Johnson
Secret Lives of Turtles and Tortoises is a delightful read. The author has had these animals as pets since 1995 and truly loves them. She takes you into her world with her beloved pets so you see them and their personalities through her eyes. Their are links to videos of the animals interspersed throughout. My favorite was the first one in which you see Jasper running into water from a hose as it is used to water plants. You can see his glee in running into and being in the water.
This little book is interesting and fun. It is zen. Really wonderful pictures. A happy read.
