Summary

"Join turtle expert Carlee Jackson as she explains how green sea turtles keep seagrass beds healthy by "mowing" them, and how some species of fish like to hitch a ride on their shells. Filled with simple science and plenty of facts, it's a perfect book to inspire the next generation of zoologists." --Back cover
