This is a book about turtles. Well, really it is a book about the theory of turtles. Although the book makes little mention of the actual turtles themselves, it acts as an allegorical tale of a turtle that has lived a long life in the desert. This turtle became very dry and dusty. It was so dehydrated that it was certain it was going to dry up completely and become nothing more than a crumbling shell on the hard desert ground. As it lay dying and dehydrated on the desert floor, a vulture came to flip it over and peck at the insides, wishing to enjoy delicious turtle soup. When the vulture swooped down to commit this act, the turtle discovered that it is in fact a tortoise. This is the tale of that vulture and how that vulture ended up saving the life of the turtle. This vulture ended up showing the turtle that there are many other turtles in the desert. And also it showed the turtle that it was in fact a dove or maybe a stork. This book is the baby.
