Lonesome George, The Giant Tortoise

With Darwin’s 200th birthday coming next week I’ve decided to volunteer some of my time at my sons school. I found Lonesome George, the Giant Tortoise at the local library.   It’s a childrens book (K-3) about a specific species of tortoise that is found on the Galapagos Islands.   George thinks he is the last of his kind and is looking for a mate.   I can’t wait to see how the kids respond to the story.
