Try an uncluttered side view first, or choose leaves, rocks and smaller shell sections for more detail. Compare domed and saddle-shaped shells, sturdy walking legs and the plants around each tortoise.

Find the walking legs, shell and head before coloring. Pick two pages and name a difference in the surroundings. Look for a tortoise drinking or standing in shallow water, too.
