review: Editorial Reviews Review “Humorous and deep.” — Kirkus Reviews “As the cityscape modernizes behind the zoo enclosure’s drama, it becomes clear that some things, from buildings to friendships, just take time.” — Publishers Weekly From the Back Cover This is Turtle. This is Tortoise. As little hatchlings, Turtle and Tortoise decided that they could never, ever be friends. Why? Because they are so different. But maybe they’ve got it all wrong. A hilarious and clever story about an unlikely friendship between two stubborn creatures, Turtle and Tortoise Are Not Friends proves that you can’t always judge someone by their shell.
