Critical Reviews
"Bob the Gopher Tortoise is a fun story that uses the gopher tortoise to introduce children to some of the plants and animals that live in the beach dune ecosystem. The story that also highlights the interdependence among some of these species by using concepts children will understand, namely the value of sharing and friendship. I encourage the reader to share this book with children and add a walk along the beach to introduce them to the wonders of nature." - Dr. Marty Martin, Program Leader, Florida Master Naturalist Program
"My son took part in the Gopher Tortoise Day Program at our school last year. At the start of the new school year, the gopher tortoise around his school made an appearance. My four-year-old told me how gopher tortoises make burrows, why they do it, and that other animals/reptiles like sankes and frogs use them. I was amazed what he remembered and he loved the games and the Prickly Pear Cactus soda!" - Bridgette Crenshaw Bromfield, The Crenshaw School
