Turtle Time with Myrtle (the Desert Tortoise)

Mr. Keller introduces Myrtle to the boys

Mr. Keller lets Myrtle do some of the talking

Everybody wanted to pet Myrtle

Thanks to the Glazier family for letting us borrow Myrtle as we discussed what it means to share our world with wildlife. I think every boy hopes to adopt a Desert Tortoise one day from a rescue organization! And thanks to Myrtle for doing a great job explaining to the boys what it is like to spend 95% of your life sleeping.
