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- education section includes fun facts about painted turtles, rubythroated 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.
