CRITIQUE: I thought the story was boring in the beginning but towards the end it got good. I think kids that like mystery’s will like this book.

As the W.F.L.B. try to learn about the animals there, the school bullies Nat and Rado try to terrorize an innocent turtle. CRITIQUE: In my personal opinion, I think the book could have been better but, I really liked the main climax point (where Nat and Rado try to kill the turtle) Overall the book is interesting in most part and gives facts about animals. I think that someone who likes animals a lot would love this book.
