Have You Ever Wondered?
Why do turtles (like me) have shells? We have shells for protection. Most turtles can pull their heads, legs, and tails into their shells when they feel threatened. The shell is very hard, like a suit of armor. It has a pattern like a jigsaw puzzle. Most turtle shells are black, brown, or dark green, but some have brighter colors on them. A turtle can't leave its shell because parts of its body are attached to it. I'll tell you how next time. Do you know what color my shell is? It's bright green!
