Turtle Tales: Shells for Survival
Turtles have hard shells on their backs. The shell keeps them safe from danger. When a turtle sees something scary, it pulls its head and legs inside the shell. The shell is like a little house that the turtle carries everywhere. Baby turtles are born with soft shells that get harder as they grow up.
