Sheldon The Shell-less Tortoise

Sheldon the tortoise was never as fast as rabbit or as agile as squirrel, but he was most happy to discover there’s no place like home.

From renowned UK-based author AH Benjamin comes a tale of a young tortoise who actually does outrun a hare. Sheldon the tortoise also out-climbs a squirrel and dives with the grace of a Kingfisher. But stepping out of his shell to master these feats brings pain, fear and danger. Sheldon the tortoise learns to appreciate who he is and be at home with what makes him special.
