Kid’s Book Project: If I Were a Turtle (Si J’étais une Tortue)

Red Fox

This is a project I completed a few months ago for French class, called Si J’étais une Tortue, or If I Were a Turtle. I thought it was really cute so I wanted to share it with you. Above was my original idea for the fox. Also good to note that my scanner was doing funny things so the pictures are a little off, but oh well. Hope you like it!

If I Were A Turtle part 2

If I Were A Turtle part 3
I think I’d like to be a turtle. If I were a turtle, I would have a shell.
If I had a shell, I could hide easily.
If I Were A Turtle part 4
If I were a turtle, I would eat my vegetables,
and I wouldn’t have to hunt my food.
If I Were A Turtle part 5
If I were a turtle, I would swim in the sea,
and I would play with rocks.
If I Were A Turtle part 6
If I were a turtle, I would never die,
and I would be able to wear glasses!
If I Were A Turtle part 7
If I were a turtle, my life would be perfect…
But…
If I Were A Turtle part 8
If I were a turtle, I would have to carry my shell,
and it would be too heavy for me.
If I Were A Turtle part 9
If I were a turtle, I wouldn’t be able to hunt things…
…and I would have to eat my vegetables.
If I Were A Turtle part 10
If I were a turtle, I would have to ferry animals across the sea,
and I would look like a rock!
If I Were A Turtle part 11
And, if I were a turtle, I would never die,
and I might outlive my best friend.
If I Were A Turtle part 12
So… Maybe…
I wouldn’t want to be a turtle.
I would like to be me, with you.
The End!
