Thorsten Geier Kleintierverlag My Life as a Water Turtle

Yellow-bellied slider "Snubby" tells of her life and offers tips on keeping aquatic turtles in a species-appropriate manner. All aspects of keeping aquatic turtles are described in detail, practically, and in an easy-to-understand manner: healthy nutrition, optimal indoor housing options, keeping a pond in a natural environment during the summer, successful hibernation, and disease prevention.

Snubby also presents various aquatic turtle species in short portraits and offers valuable additional information. Everything is written in a relaxed tone from the perspective of a turtle and supplemented with personal experiences and extra tips. Thus, despite the wealth of advice, "The Somewhat Different Aquatic Turtle Guide" manages to avoid any "finger-wagging" attitude.

Many beautiful color photos and loving illustrations make this book both entertaining and educational for turtle lovers of all ages – a book to browse, to smile about, and to learn from, from which both humans and animals can benefit.
