A Patient Hunter: The Alligator Snapping Turtle PAPERBACK

Do you ever wonder how turtles hunt their food? 

While they may move slowly on land, turtles are well adapted to catch their food and  alligator snapping turtles have the most unique features of all. They are both patient and powerful.

Explore the underwater world of an alligator snapping turtle who entices his prey to come to him. The poetic style of The Patient Hunter engages young readers and creates an enjoyable reading experience.

Hiruni’s illustrations bring the underwater world to life and help us imagine what goes on below the water’s surface and at the lake’s sandy bottom. 

Unique to picture books, the back pages include guidance for parents and teachers to make learning about nature an adventure while strengthening children’s reading and writing skills.
