Book for kids

Can anyone recommend a good book on tortoises for an 8 year old? My nephew is coming to visit. He is very inquisitive and likes to learn about science. I wanted to teach him about tortoises as he will be meeting mine.

The Owen and Mzee books. They're on the hippo and tortoise that lived together a few years back. I think there is 3 books that have some interesting reading, but still have a lot of pictures, so it's great for that age.

I was going to say that!! They come with Owen & Mzee stuffed animals! I'm an adult and I love the Owen and Mzee story.
