I have a B&N Nook. Before I got my first Tortoise, I downloaded Tortoises for Dummies. It is a great deal of information and it is one that I refer back to every now and then. The only advantage to Hardcover or paperback reference books is that you can, turn right to the page....get what you need and go on. I have to scroll through my pages on my Nook.

I am not sure about other Tortoise books or References available for Kindle or Nook...but if there were others and it interested me, I would surely buy it.

I downloaded a book that Aldabraman suggested called "Lonesome George" but it is a story more than a how to guide. A great book nonetheless. Are you downloading to your computer or a Ereader portable device?

Unfortunately, in indonesia, there is no book store who has a tortoise book..
Idk why, but it is very hard to find a tort book..:(

CT Mom is right....you can download all the ebook apps onto your IPad which is pretty cool then you are not just limited to Barnes and Noble, Amazon or the other readers out there. Good luck, there are ebooks out there, you just have to find them.

I would suggest talking to someone locally who knows what is available around there for software, then you can search for books to try.

You may also want to try your local Amazon site- they ship all over the place.
