Sea Turtles (National Geographic Kids Readers, Level 2)

This item came packaged perfectly and exactly as described. The pictures are perfect!

Bought it for my 8 year old daughter and she loves it! She loves sea turtles and is so excited she can read facts about them all by herself!

This book gives general information about sea turtles, where and how they live, the different types of turtles, and why they are endangered. I confess, I didn't really think that I would learn anything new from this book, after all it is for beginning readers, but I did learn some cool new things. For example, the leatherback turtle is not only the biggest sea turtle species (up to 7 feet long), but it doesn't have a hard shell, just rubbery skin with small bones underneath. Here are some of the things that I loved about this book: The book starts with a riddle, a perfect way to introduce the book (you'll need to hide the cover to do this). There are fun riddles/jokes throughout the book (kids love riddles and jokes). The bright, clear illustrations match the text perfectly. The captions that identify the kind of turtle in each photograph. The glossary that defines key words and shows a picture to help the reader understand each term. A fill-in-the-blank paragraph at the end that helps students use the new vocabulary.I highly recommend this book and others in the series for students who love animals, jokes, and cool facts to share.

Excellent reading. Beautiful pictures. Easy read. Birthday present for my grandson (8 y/o) who is concerned with climate change. He especially is concerned for the ocean fish & mammals. His particular interest is in saving the sea turtles. We support his interests & dedication.

National Geographic has been a favorite of mine for years in my classroom/ now retired. But, happy to purchase as gifts for my relatives children in their homes.

My 2 year old LOVES this entire series of Nat. Geo Readers... I have purchased about 25 different titles, "pre-readers" as well as Level 1 & 2 readers. She loves them all & will ask for certain ones. The "pre-readers" level books are extremely simple & great because she memorizes the words & can "read" it herself. We love the more advanced ones too, because there is more information to talk about. I have learned quite a few facts, myself!) What a great series. The price is reasonable & pictures are great. These are really getting her interested in nature, animals & science... I will continue to buy these as they are released, for our collection!

Bought for grandson who loves turtles. He gets to practice reading and learn about turtles!

It is a good book but it is a little old for a 4 year old. I bought it because he was interested in the sea turtle hatchlings and wanted more information. I had to filter some of it because it is old for him. For a 7 or 8 year old it would be perfect.

Highly recommended

👍🏼

Love this series, this was the first one I bought for my daughter and and she disappeared and read it twice straight away. Good mix of pictures of facts. Am now buying others from the series. Highly recommend

Very happy with purchase, quality paper...

My grandson loves it. He enjoys the information which is at his level of learning. He also likes the jokes on the corner of the pages
