A Frog Named Turtle

A green chunky over stuffed frog named Turtle one tortuga de rio went home with a little boy The little red-headed imagination drenched boy dressed Turtle in camouflage and held him close each day The little brown-eye fair skinned boy did case studies concerning everything about his Ninja who loved to play This camouflaged crafty warrior who parachuted from lofty heights without cracking his plated shell and definitely came alive for this frog named Turtle was not in any way a toy!!! This frog who became tortuga terrestre and entertained the little boy now resides in a drawer awaiting His golden opportunity to come alive again and parachute from lofty lofty heights... Alas! The little red-headed brown eyed fair skin boy now wears a military uniform at school and carries a wooden gun Ninja Turtle can no longer fight for he lost his little boy!! Inspired by: Cyndi McMillian's contest Written: July 26, 2014 Studies have been done about turtles and it was found that they love to play.. Tortuga de rio is Spanish for Turtles who live in the sea or water loving turtles Tortuga terrestra is Spanish for Turtles who live on land turtles

This is a lovely, interesting and informative write, Sara. I've never had a turtle, but I have a tortoise which also likes to play and run in circles (I've had it for over 30 years now.) // paul
