Jack (10) and his younger sister, Emma (nearly 8) go to Florida to visit their grandparents.  Grandpa is an expert of the wildlife in Florida and teaches them about the gopher tortoise.A lot of interesting facts and beautiful pictures in this short story.  This tortoise, Digger, digs a burrow 6 ' deep and 15' long.  Incredible act for a tortoise.  This burrow also provides shelter for over 300 different species.  The book also covers the diet, how sex is determined and talks about the eggs, as well.I had never heard of a burrowing owl so that was extremely interesting to me.Most highly recommended.
