How to save a tortoise / Kate Messner ; illustrations by Jennifer Bricking.

Messner, Kate, (author.). Bricking, Jennifer, (illustrator.).

Summary:

Ana and Sofia's cousins Ivy and Ezra volunteer for the local wildlife hospital as "critter couriers," helping injured and orphaned animals get medical help. Ana has always followed in her twin's footsteps, but since they moved to California, Ana has wondered what it'd be like to try something new--like joining the Makers Club instead of playing volleyball again with Sofia. Then the cousins get a call about an injured gopher tortoise that's been hit by a car. The city hasn't done anything to make crossings safer for the endangered animals, so the kids come up with a plan to do just that. Ana has never been one for the spotlight, but the tortoises need her! If Ana can gather the courage to stand up for the tortoises, maybe she can be brave enough to tell Sofia that she wants to try something new.
