Turtles and tortoises (called "Chelonians" by aficionados) make fascinating pets, but are somewhat tricky to care for. This friendly guide puts turtles and tortoises in a nutshell, even for absolute beginners. It explains everything from settling on the right diet to setting up an appropriate indoor or outdoor enclosure.

Great beginners book.

Clear, easy-to-read, easy-to-follow information about turtles and tortises. I purchased this book after becoming a guardian to an Arizona desert tortise. These creatures are protected and found in small areas of Nevada, California and Arizona, and there is not much information about them to be found. This book had more useful information than I received from any other source.

Great for box and tortoise lovers

The author was very knowledgeable about her favorites: box turtles and (large) tortoises. That's all well and good, but... None of these turtles are suited for indoor keeping! I would expect that most prospective or current turtle keepers want or have smaller turtles, and it would have been nice to get more detailed info about them. If you can keep your chenolians in an outdoor habitat, BUY THIS BOOK. Otherwise, find another.
