The Little Turtle

The Little Turtle

 This BIG turtle was living in my parents pond. I thought he was lovely. Just look at how big he is! Amazing! He was not very happy to have his photo taken. A little snappy, I'd have to say!

The Little Turtle
There was a little turtle.
He lived in a box.
He swam in a puddle.
He climbed on the rocks.

He snapped at a mosquito.
He snapped at a flea.
He snapped at a minnow.
And he snapped at me.

He caught the mosquito.
He caught the flea.
He caught the minnow.
But he didn't catch me.
   
  
 This little turtle was in our flower garden.
This guy was not as grumpy as the fella up top. I felt a lot safer taking his photo.

Happy Tuesday
