This is a book that the turtles wrote.

As you can see, it doesn't have any pictures.

You might be asking "why would we want to read a book with no pictures? Those kinds of books are for boring grown ups."

But this book became famous in our class because us turtles know how books work...

And that means that anything the book says, the person reading it...

HAS to say...

We want to drive our teachers bonkers, so we wrote our own book with no pictures...turtle edition.

So...let's practice.

The kid that I'm reading to is the greatest kid in the whole wide world and should get gingerbread cookies and cake!

Layla

Good job! You're really getting the hang of this...

So that means...

Even if the book says...

BLOOF

Wait - Huh?!

That's not even a word.

Minh
