Enchanting illustrations make this Edwardian-era fiction about a very unusual Eastern box turtle memorable. (Miller Library Staff)
Mossy, a turtle with a garden growing on her shell, is taken from her home and new friend to become an exhibit in a museum, until the director's niece, Tory, notices how sad Mossy is and helps arrange for her to go home.
