Review: Where is he? Tank, the tortoise, was wondering where his food was. Where was the man that fed him his beans?

In this story, we follow the sorrowful ode to special bond between a turtle and his owner. Then something happens that makes Tank believe in second chances. 

The story started off with illustrations that were well-crafted and colorful, but then, half-way through, the pages began to fill with actual photos of the tortoise. It was nice, but it felt a little out of place.

Overall, this was a cute tale that will invoke the inspiration to get a pet turtle.

 

Rating: 4 stars

  1. Thank you for hosting. I appreciate your review of my book.
    I wanted my book to be unique. So I added real pictures of Tank, our little guy who could be anywhere between 40 and 45 years old. He loves his favorite food, string beans everyday. 🙏🏻🐢🙏🏻
