Did You Know?

Have you ever watched a small pet tortoise munching leaves and wondered how big it might grow? In Esio Trot, Mrs. Silver’s little Alfie is at the heart of the story. But on the Galápagos Islands, giant tortoises grow as big as a table and can weigh over 250 kilograms. These gentle giants eat grasses, cactus pads, and fruit, slowly grazing their way across the islands for more than 100 years of life.
